Capoeira in the afternoon

Music punched through the air, as people tensed their necks to the coming confrontation. Two guys were hustling, facing each other, posing to fight. Legs and torsos did acrobatics through the air. A body tossed and turned to defy gravity in aerial ballet. One turn, two, three turns. And all that in synchronicity, as agile bodies gracefully moved in rhythm to the beat.

This was Capoeira, the Brazilian street dance/martial arts.

Capoeira has its origins in groups of Angolan slaves that were trying to hide their fighting practices from their masters. The fight dance is increasingly becoming popular in the world. Other than that, don't know much about it. I'm interested though, don't know, (a big) maybe can try it, no?
