Yesterday I went to a Capoeira show in Kowllon Park.
I have seen maybe 2 videos on youtube or TV related to Capoeira so I had no expectation what so ever.
I was kind of afraid because at the beginning nobody showed up but it get better later (as usual in HK every event start late).
I was really surprise. First this is not a male only martial art. There are girl training with the guys and it's good. I was also amazed because it really seems easy to do (but I'm pretty sure it's not when it's your turn).
All of them are really fit (so girls next time your Capoeira stop by to watch those guys)
And like Wushu it's not only fighting, it's also music and dancing at the same time.
Really easy to watch and enjoy.
There are almost no contacts but it would probably be very bad otherwise.
Like every sports it starts with stretching...

... and and training
After that it's all about playing
There are more pictures
here.
And it's seems that I'm not the only one to enjoy Capoeira
There will be more Capoeira event pretty soon so come and enjoy.
PS : Sorry but my flash sucks so sometimes it's a little bit grainy (auto ISO is not always the best choice)
