Based in Vancouver, BC, the organization today continues to rise as one of the world’s leading schools of capoeira. With its internationally high standards of teaching and training students, Axé Capoeira has seen steady enrolment increase over the years, to a current total of approximately 10,000 students in over 30 countries around the world. Students and instructors from Axé Capoeira travel internationally to participate in capoeira workshops, competitions, and performances. The group is known for promoting the history, music, art and culture of Brazil through interactive and educational capoeira demonstrations featured in public or for other organizations. Although Axé Capoeira celebrates the Afro-Brazilian culture, it represents much more than that. In the last 25 years the group has performed at various events helping to bring the city of Vancouver together. It is an inclusive group dedicated to preserving the roots and traditions of capoeira, as well as celebrating the diversity of Vancouver. Axé Capoeira is committed to the community, and since 1990 has been a traveling group in Canada. By touring schools across BC, including those in remote areas, members have shown a deep commitment to share their knowledge. Ensuring that a percentage of yearly performances are donated to the community, Axé Capoeira also collects clothes, musical instruments and donations from members and students to give to children both at home and abroad in Brazil. In addition to encouraging and teaching the art of capoeira across the globe, Axé Capoeira has released eight internationally acclaimed music CDs, annual performance DVDs, and a four-volume instructional DVD set. Axé Capoeira works to ensure a strong future for capoeira. Through research, travel, hosting events, and networking with other capoeira organizations in Brazil and internationally, Axé Capoeira aims to increase the group’s own knowledge of capoeira while contributing to the art’s evolution in the world. Philosophy The philosophy of Axé Capoeira is based on respect for capoeira Mestres, those who devoted their lives to building up the art before us; on the preservation of the historical roots and traditions of capoeira; and on practicing capoeira in all its aspects: martial, aesthetic, and cultural. Instructors teach students in a way that will encourage positive, healthy growth in capoeira, delivering both physical and mental training so the student will become a well-rounded capoeirista and individual. CONTACT US The goal of capoeira is for the two players to create and maintain a physical and psychological dialogue, Julie Ali in which students learn how to create and respond to situations, within the game of capoeira and in life Manager situations outside of capoeira. By engaging with both friends and opponents students develop fl exibility Axé Capoeira of thinking, an openness to-others, and an appreciation for differences and multiculturalism. 604.761.4635 [email protected].

Mason ge Capoeira Angola performance outside the Santo Antônio Além do Carmo, also known as the Forte da Capoeira, in Salvador da Bahia, Brazil. 3 Intracultural and Intercultural Dynamics of Capoeira Training in Brazil Paul H. Mason ABSTRACT In the port-cities of Brazil during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, a distinct form of combat- dancing emerged from the interaction of African, European and indigenous peoples. The acrobatic movements and characteristic music of this art have come to be called Capoeira. Today, the art of Capoeira has grown in popularity and groups of practitioners can be found scattered across the globe. Exploring how Capoeira practitioners invent markers of difference between separate groups, the first section of this article discusses musical markers of identity that reinforce in-group and out- group dynamics. At a separate but interconnected level of analysis, the second section investigates the global origins of Capoeira movement and disambiguates the commonly recounted origin myths promoted by teachers and scholars of this art. Practitioners frequently relate stories promoting the African origins of Capoeira. However, these stories obfuscate the global origins of Capoeira music and movement and conceal the various contributions to this vibrant and eclectic form of cultural ex- pression.

  • Dancing Through Difficulties: Capoeira As a Fight Against Oppression by Sara Da Conceição
    Dancing Through Difficulties: Capoeira as a Fight Against Oppression by Sara da Conceição Capoeira is difficult to define. It is an African form of physical, spiritual, and cultural expression. It is an Afro-Brazilian martial art. It is a dance, a fight, a game, an art form, a mentality, an identity, a sport, an African ritual, a worldview, a weapon, and a way of life, among other things. Sometimes it is all of these things at once, sometimes it isn’t. It can be just a few of them or something different altogether. Capoeira is considered a “game” not a “fight” or a “match,” and the participants “play” rather than “fight” against each other. There are no winners or losers. It is dynamic and fluid: there is no true beginning or end to the game of capoeira. In perhaps the most widely recognized and referenced book dealing with capoeira, Ring of Liberation: Deceptive Discourse in Brazilian Capoeira, J. Lowell Lewis attempts to orient the reader with a fact-based, straightforward description of this blurred cultural genre: A game or sport played throughout Brazil (and elsewhere in the world) today, which was originally part of the Afro-Brazilian folk tradition. It is a martial art, involving a complete system of self-defense, but it also has a dance-like, acrobatic movement style which, combined with the presence of music and song, makes the games into a kind of performance that attracts many kinds of spectators, both tourists and locals. (xxiii) An outsider experiencing capoeira for the first time would undoubtedly assert that the “game” is a spectacular, impressive, and peculiar sight, due to its graceful and spontaneous integration of fighting techniques with dance, music, and unorthodox acrobatic movements.

Forrest-Blincoe is a 4th dan black belt master in Tang Soo Do which he has studied in the United States and Korea. He has also studied Taekkyon in South Korea.1 During this time, he has been interested in the official histories of these martial arts in contrast with documented histories (which often differ significantly). Both Forrest and Forrest-Blincoe are trained anthropologists. Forrest specializes in symbols and national identity, and has published extensively on the anthropology of movement and dance. Problem and Aim. The martial arts Taekwondo, Tang Soo Do, and Taekkyon have competed within Korea for some time to rep- resent Korean culture, and Korea has used martial arts as an export as one component in its drive to gain legitimacy as a world power competitive with its more powerful neighbors of China and Japan. This paper examines the process of using martial arts as symbols of Korean national identity.

Compressive 2. Stretching (tensile) 3. Shearing – the most dangerous HEAD BLOWS • Rotational (angular) acceleration – blows to the side of the head or to the chin that produce the greatest shearing forces causing direct neuronal and vascular damage, either focal or diffuse. • Translational (linear) acceleration – jabs to the face that are less dangerous but still can account for coup – contrecoup injury to the brain. • Impact deceleration – occurs when head strikes the mat after a KO and may cause an additional traumatic brain injury. CONCUSSION • A complex pathophysiologic process that affects the brain and is induced by traumatic biomechanical forces. • Typically it is a rapid onset of short-lived impairment of neurological function that resolves spontaneously (although a small percentage will have prolonged post- concussion symptoms. • It is difficult to diagnose during a boxing match because most concussions are not associated with LOC and, a fighter who gets KO’d may or may not be concussed.
