A one hour workshop of Capoeira Angola and its similarities to Yoga
Sale Date Ended
Capoeira Angola is an ancient form of movement of Afro- Brazilain origin. It is one of the many cultural weapons used to break the chains of enslavement in Brazil. Played close to the ground, Capoeira Angola combines fluid dance/ yoga like movements with kicks, head butts, tripping sweeps and the appearance of playfulness. Played on traditional instruments, Capoeira Angola puts music into yoga.
Since Capoeira movement is so varied, people who train capoeira know thier body in an intuitive way, this knowledge and this consciousness is of great help in yoga.
