Capoeira was invented hundreds of years ago in Brazil. It combines dance and music with martial arts and gymnastics, and it is part of what defines Brazilian culture. Nowadays, an increasing number of men and women in many countries are discovering this pastime that exercises the brain as much as it does the body. Before a Capoeira jogo, or game, Capoeira players and musicians get together in a large circle called a roda. A game starts when two players meet in the middle of the roda and begin a series of movements. Capoeira is similar to martial arts such as karate and judo because players practice different kinds of attacks and ways to defend themselves. One player displays part of an attack move but doesn't complete it; the other player pretends to block the attack but then gets out of the way instead. Players try to be unpredictable so that their opponents quickly have to decide on an escape move. In the jogo, the two players sweep their legs over one another, crouch down low, jump, stand on their hands or even their heads－and they do it all in time to music! Capoeira always includes musicians who decide whether the game will be slow- or fast-paced. They play traditional African musical instruments, including various drums and the berimbau, a one-stringed instrument that is hit with a stick. These instruments reflect and preserve the origins of Capoeira, which was invented by slaves brought to Brazil from Africa. There is no written history explaining why Capoeira was invented, but it is said that Capoeira games were a way for slaves, who came from many different cultures, to interact with each other. Capoeira was probably an enjoyable change from their hard work, and it might have been a way for slaves to become excellent fighters without their masters knowing about it. Today, Capoeira’s universal appeal can be seen in many places. In the movie The Matrix, the character Morpheus uses Capoeira moves in a fight. There is even a Pokemon character named Kapoera that spins on its head like a Capoeira player. And Bally Total Fitness, a chain of exercise facilities, recently announced a class that combines a cardio workout with martial arts and dance. You guessed it－it's Capoeira!
