Yeah at first I didn't even know what that was until I read a quote? I guess in the corner it was saying that it was a stylized dance to imitate a fight or something like, they said screw imitating lol...That was nice lol
That was funny. No offense to them, and i have one down the street form my house, but Capoeira fighters seem like TKD fighters... they know how to look the part, but can't do sh*t with it when in an actual fight...
It is very cool to watch though and I will admit that if i was about to get into it with a guy and he started doing that sh!t I would be a little intimidated.
ahaha, i was like what the, and then its just WOAH.. your right if I was walking around town and someone just stepped infront of me and pulled that s--- I would be like , take what you want..lol

Fighting and training was made illegal in Brazil (can't have any insurrection going on now), so they practiced Capoeira as a "dance" to get around the restriction. I've had friends who've taken it, and refer to it as trying not to kick each other in the head. It's a good workout, but not technically fighting. That's why they all play soccer & BJJ.

I would actually like to take Capoeira for 6 months, but then quickly return to boxing and Muay Thai.

any reason in particular they decided to kick the crap out of each other?? I saw one guy actually kick the other one and then It looked like one of them slapped the other one. That's when the one that got slapped picked up the other one and tried to F5 him :lol:
