- Queen Nzinga was a warrior Queen from what is now Angola who fought against the Portuguese slave traders. Some of her people were captured but were able to keep their fighting skills and culture through the middle passage to Brazil. There they had to disguise their martial art as a dance creating what is now called Capoeria. Capoeria was a form of resistance for Africans and was officially banned by the government until fairly recently , Zumbi of Palmares led a free city of escaped Africans
Beautiful definitely African in its origins mixing dance music and fighting beautiful blend
I would think this is the hardest martial art to learn. It requires a lot of fitness. Where most martial arts you can get away with being out of shape most of the time, Ive NEVER seen an experienced Capoerista who was fat.
correct which is why an mma fighter stated that it was reltively easy to transition from capoeira to mma because the moves in capoeira are very diffcult. Capoeira is one of those martial arts whis itsa princples fit well into boxing wrestling etc.
if i wasnt already break dancing in highschool i dont think i would be as good in capoeira in the amount of time that i have been into it which hasnt even been an entire two years
Joseph Kennedy I didnt say it required hardening of bones or strength, I just said it requires a lot of fitness.
actually capoeira is a style that requires maimeing as well as passivity Van TheAnomaly
Everybody should see this in person so fascinating
From African perspective,or precisely as a Yoruba' these dance steps or martial act you call it is usually performed and still is by masquerade regarded as performance and agility of dead ancestors..thanks
THIS REALLY SHOWS OUR AFRICAN ROOTS
Capoeira looks like the style of Engolo from southern Angola
Capoeria started in Angola Africa. I know alot ppl have just been excepting what they heard. Without researching for themselves. This what have done for centuries to obscure the truth of African culture's.
Calm friend, what was practiced in Angola is N'golo. Capoeira was developed over time in Brazil, specifically in quilombos.
@@viniciusmendonca336 N'Golo was used By African Soldier's in Africa and a lot the Slaves were War Prisoners so It wasn't just Practiced in Africa , it was Perfected in Africa ! Slaves that came from Non Violent Tribes had to learn Engolo in Secret by the Experienced Ones !
@@jerryjordan2482 n'golo is Very diferent of capoeira, capoeira in 1800 and now is very,Very,Very diferent (several techniques are modified) capoeira is inspired by african fights,indigenous fights,created in Brazilian territóry
@@carlossoffiatti9723 Even if the Style is Modified The Origin is Still African ! Master Bimba that's an African Name ! Just like Hip Hop was Created in South Bronx New York but All they Did was Take Things from Caribbean Culture's and Modify them !
I love martial arts.especially black martial artists
I wanna see the out takes. I know many who practice Capoeira and every session contact is made by mistake. It makes for an awesome learning experience.
Anyone know of an online course taught by someone of African origins?
This is definitely badass
Agreed
the capoeira is a art mixing dance, music and fight and for those who says that is not from Africa please tell me if European do it.
it is Brazilian.
Who created europeans or the africans forced to be slave?
All the instruments used are africans.
African roots, not rutopeans.
@Saadh Zahid
it has African roots....dumbass....it originated from Angola , disgusted as a dance.
Dré O. Flipper cool,
Is a mix of two rituals and cultures .. Africans and Indians ... if Africans had brought rituals like N'Golo, here in Brazil the Indians had the Xondaro ... Indian ritual recorded on the beaches in the first letters written here, ritual done in a circle in a place called capoeira with an identical sound Despite the instrument Actually replace the singing .. the Indians think Despite being savages had a vast culture and knowledge ..and an organization ... so capoeira has roots in africa but it was generated and born here in the middle with indium DNA
African are the coolest
Love this
I Love this!!!
He start doing the african Capoeira dance
Mateus Tofoli you need some correction. Who give you the right as a descendant of Europeans (downpressors) to comment on African culture manifest in Brazil as Capoeria. In Jamaica among-st the Congolese Angolans they referred to their deity as King Zombi. Therefore Zombi is not Portuguese and or European in origin .So Zombi ,Brazil and Bimba which Jamaicans call bombo are all relic of African Culture. Check yourself and stop trying to corrupt and steal that which is ours. bombo-claaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat,.
calm yourself before your throwing rocks inside a glass house! zumbi and zombi are different things! google zumbi and palmares to know more. bimba is the name of a brazilian capoeira mestre. and ofcourse is brazil massively influenced by the africans brought to the americas, still capoeira nowadays is everything else than african. it has its roots there, yes, but this development would never had happened if the inventors wouldn't have had to develop this way of defence. and put every European in the line with downpressors is shot far over the goal, like not every african is down pressed. just a hint, i don't wanna excuse or smth, what português and other European countries did was horrible, but the African people captured their neighbours and sold them in trade for weapons to the colonialists.. its not always black and white..
ahything else but african? Are you afraid of Africa so much that you have to take away the african essence of this tradition? lol and about the "the African people captured their neighbours and sold them in trade for weapons" lol you really need to stop repeating the lies made up by the colonialist
Art of N'Golo /Kipura was Perfected by African Soldiers before they came to Brazil ! When the War prisoners came to Brazil ,they Taught the Slaves that came from Non violent Tribes how to Fight back against the Oppressor's !
beautiful
Wow!!!!!!!
Its awesome how slaves were underestimated as being "dumb" and they came up with this disguised as a GAME and practiced it RIGHT in front of the slave owners who werent the wiser eh?
Vam TheAnomaly Yes it is the Slave masters thought they were dancing!
It's crazy they call it a "Brazilian" martial art. This was literally something created by slaves that's only in Brazil because of the trade.
The world has this real aversion to attributing *Anything* to the African lol smDh
Exactly
Exactly ! And we have to Check them Every time they Try not to Give Africa it's Props !
Beautiful and deadly..origin?..the dark continent .
Mateo tufuli deixe-me lhe dizer a capoeira tem sua Raiz em África Angola assim que não quer dizer que e de Brasil so, à verdadeira gente que sabe da capoeira e sua história são os afrodescendentes do Brasil e você mais europeo que outra coisa ..
os africanos escravos deram o Brasil música e cultura mas seis descendentes não têm a mesma facilidade que os filhos dos europeus.
Não cara não, pelo amor de deus, não tenho, preconceitos principalmente com a mãe áfrica... Pra você saber sou capoerista, umbandista, espírita tenho meia família de etnia negra... Não quis ser preconceituoso, apenas passar a informação correta para os outros países... Capoeira é e sempre será, cultura e arte marcial brasileira!!!! Talvez meu inglês fraco tenha te confundido... Mas preconceituoso não quero ser nunca...

Art of N'Golo was Already Perfected by African Soldiers in Africa ! The war Prisoners Trained the Slaves that came from Non Combative tribes so can Rebel against the Oppressors !
correct please... brazilian martial art. ... zumbi = brazilian, bimba= brazilian... thanks.
Exactly, the pioneers of capoeira were Brazilians, and these people say that they are Angolan.
It was developed in brazil by african descendants
It was Developed and Perfected by African Soldiers in Africa !
@@jerryjordan2482 no capoeira is Brazilian,not european,not Áfrican,Just Brazilian
The aimoré,xondâro and another indigenous fights and the Áfrican fights like engolo inspired the capoeira
But capoeira is capoeira,a typical Brazilian fight,with Brazilian background
@@carlossoffiatti9723 Brazilian's are a Mixed Breed of People so those Cultures came from Somewhere Else !
