  1. Capoeira! By Ambrico Ranginui

  2. What is capoeira ? • It is a truly fun martial art! • Capoeira includes dancing, cartwheels, awesome kicks, handstands, back filps, drumming, and instrument playing.

  3. Where did it come from? Capoeira comes from Brazil, a country in South America and they speak Portuguese.

  4. The Origins of Capoeira • During the 16th Century slaves were brought to Brazil from Africa. • These slaves had to work hard in Brazil on sugar cane farms. They were treated very badly and some people tried to escape. • Escapees were punished and sometimes killed. • These slave-workers developed capoeira as a martial art disguised as a dance style.

  5. Capoeira Moves • My two favourite moves are Ginga and Au. Ginga is a smooth dance-like movement, in the shape of a triangle; it prepares us for battle. Au is a slow, controlled cartwheel. Although with this move opponents can easily kick or head-butt you so be careful!
