Explore the rich traditions of Capoeira with this comprehensive three-film collection from Grupo Senzala, one of the world's most respected Capoeira organizations. Developed over four centuries ago by enslaved Africans in Brazil, Capoeira is a unique martial art that combines combat, dance, music, acrobatics, and cultural expression. Guided by the rhythm of the berimbau, practitioners gather in the roda, where kicks, evasions, flowing movements, and breathtaking acrobatics come together in a dynamic display of skill, timing, and creativity.

Technical Instruction

Build a strong foundation with a complete introduction to Capoeira. Begin with warm-ups and stretching before progressing through the essential ginga, evasions, kicks, ground movements, footwork, and fundamental combinations, both solo and with a partner. Improve your coordination, balance, timing, and body control while learning signature Capoeira techniques through detailed demonstrations filmed from multiple camera angles for maximum clarity.

The instructional section concludes with solo movement sequences and a complete Capoeira game between two practitioners, allowing you to see how the techniques come together in real practice.

Capoeira Angola

Discover the oldest and most traditional style of Capoeira. Rich in history and philosophy, Angola emphasizes strategy, deception, rhythm, and precision. With its lower, more deliberate movements, this style preserves the roots of the Brazilian martial art while remaining highly effective.

Capoeira Regional

Experience the speed, athleticism, and excitement of Capoeira Regional, the modern style known for its explosive kicks, spectacular acrobatics, and fast-paced rodas. Watch elite practitioners demonstrate the power, agility, and technical excellence that have made Regional one of the most popular styles of Capoeira worldwide.

As one of the most influential and respected Capoeira organizations, Grupo Senzala presents a program that combines detailed instruction with inspiring demonstrations, giving viewers both a practical introduction to the art and an authentic look at the beauty and diversity of Capoeira's Angola and Regional traditions.
