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.

  • Capoeira Is an Afro-Brazilian Martial Art That Combines Self-Defense, Acrobatics, Dance-Like Moves, Music and a Lot of Playful Energy--Which Is Why Kids Love It
    Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that combines self-defense, acrobatics, dance-like moves, music and a lot of playful energy--which is why kids love it. Parents love capoeira because it its a dynamic tool to channel energy and nurture the athletic, artistic, musical and personal development of their child. Capoeira is active and energetic, musical and artistic, serious and funny, and requires focus and awareness. Classes will keep your child physically fit and mentally engaged. Our youth program provides opportunities for students to develop self-defense and life skills including: MOVEMENT - MUSIC - CULTURE - COMMUNITY DISCIPLINE - RESPECT - SELF CONFIDENCE BALANCE - COORDINATION - RHYTHM AGILITY - CREATIVITY - FLEXIBILITY Through drills, exercises, working with a partner or alone, children learn to “play capoeira” with an understanding of limits and respect for each other. Students learn: • Fundamentals—Ginga & Aú (cartwheel) • Basic Attack and Defense Movements • Stretching Techniques • Tumbling/Acrobatics • Focus and Awareness • Etiquette and Tradition • Play instruments • Sing songs in Portuguese As with other martial arts, capoeira has traditions and codes of behavior that are very important to follow and understand--for safety purposes as well as to show respect and cultural responsibility for the practice and preservation of the art. Students will learn Portuguese naturally as many of the commands and direction in class are given in Portuguese. As shown in the classes, all of the names of the movements (and songs) are in Portuguese. Students who train capoeira will gain a sense of achievement and confidence through hard work, dedication to the art, and camaraderie with fellow students. From the youngest student to the oldest, we encourage leadership qualities in all our students and seek opportunities for each student to improve and demonstrate these skills.

Hong Kong Martial Arts between Hollywood and Beijing Gina Marchetti University of Hong Kong Email: [email protected] Keywords The Karate Kid choreography wu shu movie fu real kung fu Abstract This analysis of the martial arts choreography in The Karate Kid (2010) examines the contradictory matrix in which action films produce meanings for global audiences. A remake of a 1984 film, this iteration of The Karate Kid begins its imaginative battle over martial arts turf with English and Chinese titles at odds with one another. For English- speaking audiences, the title of the film promises a remake of the popular 1984 story of a displaced Italian American teenager (Ralph Macchio) trained by a Japanese American sensei (Pat Morita) to compete against the local karate bullies. However, the 2010 version has another identity competing with the first. Its Chinese title translates as Kung Fu Dream – Japanese culture, karate, and domestic American class and racial politics out of the picture. In this version, an African American youngster (Jaden Smith) moves to Beijing from Detroit and is taken under the wing of a drunken kung fu master (Jackie Chan) to battle a group of wu shu/san da villains.

  • Which Is Yours? Capoeira Angola, Regional, and Contemporânea
    Which is yours? Capoeira Angola, Regional, and Contemporânea By Rui Takeguma Translation by Shayna McHugh (All footnotes are the author’s, in the original text) Source: http://brancalulaleone.vilabol.uol.com.br/qualeasua.html Introduction As we enter the new millennium, we find that the Capoeira universe has expanded, showing very different faces from those that it showed during the last centuries. At first glance we find two icons and two styles: Mestre Pastinha of Capoeira Angola and Mestre Bimba of Capoeira Regional. But in today’s Capoeira environment, rich in diversity, there is semantic confusion regarding the origin, development, and complexity of the existing forms of Capoeira. This text aims to put a bit of “wood in the fire” regarding the definitions, and proposes a new way to see the various capoeiras. Less than 100 years ago, Capoeira was a crime under the Brazilian penal code, and there was a prison in Fernando de Noronha to which captured capoeiristas were sent. Today, Capoeira possesses the fame of the only genuinely Brazilian sport; it is present in many countries and aims to become an Olympic sport. We hit the turn of the century with an “Advanced Professional Course Specifically in Capoeira” at the University Gama Filho in Rio de Janeiro, and we have a number of practicing capoeiristas today that we never had in history. On the other hand, a minority of these capoeiristas do Angola or Regional, while almost all of them do neither of these styles. Others think they do both… In this globalized capitalist society, we have to be very careful with concepts.
