We learn Capoeira with our partners Nikola Orešković and Katjuša Kovačič of Balanço Da Meia Lua (http://www.capoeira.si/en).

Capoeira is a thrilling traditional Brazilian sport/dance/form of art with African, Portuguese and Indigenous Brazilian origins. Capoeira arose during the time of Brazilian slavery, when enslaved Africans in the Brazilian interior learned the acrobatic form of fighting to defend themselves but presented it to their masters as a dance, a sport and a form of entertainment.
