Capoeira Part III






Music is the most important element of Capoeira.

They are singing during their performance.

Let's learn this Afro-Brazilian art from their music!

I can see you're flying! What is this song and art of fighting!



Bem-te-vi vôou, vôou Bem-te-vi vôou, vôou Deixa voar

Lá lauê lauê lauê lauê Lá lauê lauê lauê lauê

Que som o que arte é essa de luta e brincadeira

Que roda maravilhosa é essa é o Batuque Capoeira

Em cada som, em cada toque em cada ginga, tem um estilo de jogo

Em cada som, em cada toque em cada ginga, tem um estilo de jogo

Lauê lauê lá... Lá lauê lauê lauê lauê

    不過他們不是真的對打, 氣氛好好的!

  7. Oh I have heard of this dance-exercise thing. But those people looked like they're fighting their opponents.

  8. Capoeira is a dance-exercise and they are not really fighting!
    Actually they were really enjoying their performance!

  10. Interesting song!
    Is that Brazilian Portuguese?
    Portuguese sounds quite difficult to pronounce!
    Spanish is easier! And it's more useful?! ;)

    so you can feel some action of them!
    I'm glad that you appreciate these photos!
