Capoeira Tutorial: Macaco

[@CainMaya]

Thank you so much for your wonderful tutorials, they are really helpful

[@colinwoodford5842]

You make it look so easy! im trying to teach myself by watching you

[@CapoeiraTrainingClub]

That's awesome! Let me know if you hit any walls while learning this move. I'd love to help. Definitely keep me posted once you get this move

[@colinwoodford5842]

I'm nowhere near flexible enough (yet) to get this down, i really enjoy learning basic capoeira kicks and learning its origins though!

[@CapoeiraTrainingClub]

That's the beauty of Capoeira. We have the freedom of going at our own pace in this awesome process

[@arnabsengupta6648]

Sir, You broke it down INCREDIBLY WELL !!! almost like slow motion though actually being in original regular motion. Really impressed !!! Please keep up the GOOD JOB. Thanks!

[@CapoeiraTrainingClub]

Haha! Happy to hear the video helped :)

[@gnuPirate]

Fantastic video dude. Thanks for your tutorials. Great progressions, great demonstrations. 10/10. I look forward to seeing your newer videos, I'm sure you're super good by now!

[@CapoeiraTrainingClub]

Thank you! We are now teaching - you can follow our group on IG: @CapoeiraTC instagram.com/capoeiratc? We’ll make more videos soon :) - thank you for the kind words again

[@sanfranciscopianoshop4854]

Rad video. Macaco is on my bucket list. I noticed that you're doing boxer breathing as you do certain kicks. Have you done a tutorial on breathing yet?

[@WookieMonster01]

Pretty cool videos Macaquinho! Took me about a year to get this move. Lol. Still struggle with this move on my left side, usually end up twisting into a regular au but hopefully that will change with your tips on this video. Funny is that I actually know CM Bocao, he was at my first batizado like 2 years ago. I train under CM Molejo in Dallas, TX. Both really good capoeiristas. Axe brother!

[@CapoeiraTrainingClub]

Good to hear you are with CM Molejo. He came to my first Batizado, and developed a lot of respect for him. I'm looking forward to hanging out with you guys at some point in the future.

[@iuness]

Very good tutorial, loved the progression and also your honesty when talking about how hard it was for you to learn it.

[@CapoeiraTrainingClub]

Thanks! I'm working to make them better with time. I'm open to suggestions of any tutorials you may want to see in the future.

[@NeilCaldwell]

Sending muito axé from Sydney, Australia! Many thanks for the great breakdown, I'm going to refine my macacco with this! Would love to see an au de frente tutorial or ponte walkover tutorial, simple for your level! Axé!

[@CapoeiraTrainingClub]

Thank you Neil! I happy to hear people halfway around the world are finding this useful. I appreciate the feedback, and will place the au de frente on my list of future tutorials. I must admit, I have a lot of perfecting to do before I teach it. I'm excited about learning the move, and sharing how I learned with you guys!

[@ELOOOification]

Great video. I like that you mentioned it took time to accomplish the move. So many times people expect things overnight.

[@adatewithdeath1986]

Thanks man. the tip on using the arms momentum helped me finally commit to getting the twist out of mine.

ance - When it comes to shoes for Capoeira, I like shoes that are small with simple soles that keep me close to the ground. That eliminates most clunky sports shoes like running shoes, basketball shoes, and crosstraining shoes. The shoes you see on the video are Rainha, from Brazil. I believe they are for indoor volleyball, and they are also great for Capoeira. People from Capo groups all over the world covet these. I've heard stories of a mestres from Israel going to the Brazilian factory while visiting for a big Capo event, and buying

[@AlexandriaPierreEtienne]

Beautiful form! Thanks for the tutorial.

[@yssing]

Your tutorials are really good!

[@CapoeiraTrainingClub]

+yssing Thanks!

[@raksh9]

Thank you from Australia! I have always wanted to know what this capoeira move is called, and now do I not only know, but I have a detailed tutorial with a progressive training sequence. The way you put together the final sequences does look very cool as well. Thank you very much!

[@Blingaling-qe2zw]

This is a helpful video,Working on doing a Macaco, I can do a bridge.The last time I did a backflip and got over the hump was in 1982. There was no KZbin back then.

[@CapoeiraTrainingClub]

Thanks for the feedback! Happy to hear you are getting back to it!

[@MiroFaltinek77]

great stuff, very good tutorial, thanks from Ireland.I am subscribing right now :)

[@nandanapper]

Thank you so much for a great macaco tutorial! this is such a great help! i'm going to practice my macaco with this! upload more videos for capoeira movements tutorials please? thank you!

[@CapoeiraTrainingClub]

succy ananda Thanks for the feedback! I know It's been forever, but I'm working to upload at least two videos a month, and I'd love to hear what you would like to see next.

[@emanuelwoodhouse3809]

I love this man do you have an app you can learn from

[@Gothangelik]

Amazing! I was going to ask you for a tutorial for the macaco after I watched your video on the au de coluna/gumbi again. These are two moves I've resumed working on. :)

[@EduardoGonzalez-qd4qu]

Great tutorial, I actually have a problem with the technique for this but I'm just gonna keep practicing. Keep up posting vids, they are really helpful. Can you post a vid on how to properly do a bananeira?

[@CapoeiraTrainingClub]

I'm curios, what's the challenge you are facing with the technique? I'd love to hear about it, so I can help make the videos better in the future and maybe give you some advice. Also, thanks for the suggestion for a Bananeira vid. I'll put it on my list of vids for the future. Axe!

[@AuttyBot]

Helpful tutorial! Thank you!

[@awsamo0790]

Thank you very much!

[@88swordmaster]

the best tutorial for Macaco, unfortunately when I try it I still make a cartwheel but my desire is to learn it ^_^

[@bazkath578]

you make it look so easy!! :P I just spent about an hour today trying to find the links you sent me to this video and the other intro video. Have you got another tutorial specifically aimed at increasing hip mobility and maybe stretching out the hip flexors ... and lower back etc. That whole region is super tight on me!

[@CapoeiraTrainingClub]

Baz Kath glad you found it. Let me know how it goes. Btw, happy to see the updates of your Brazil adventures

[@historiasdelmundo6847]

Really nice video!

[@CapoeiraTrainingClub]

Joel Walker thanks! It’s an oldie but a goodie. :)

[@MetalMonkey1453]

I've been practicing capoeira for about a year now and I've found that one of the most troublesome areas for me is improving my Ponte. I have a bit of a deformed spinal cord where a few of my plates pinch in my lower back, which makes back bends extremely hard (But of course I can stick my head between my legs forward...)I can do the version of Macaco that my instructor taught me, which is similar to a grounded backwards Au, but am still unable to handle a lot of the more back intensive flips. Any tips for helping maximize the effectiveness of my stretches? I need to make my back more flexible....

Gostei mto e vo prática

The shoes you see on the video are Rainha, from Brazil. I believe they are for indoor volleyball, and they are also great for Capoeira. People from Capo groups all over the world covet these. I've heard stories of a mestres from Israel going to the Brazilian factory while visiting for a big Capo event, and buying the whole inventory to take back home for his people - that's how popular they are. While the Rainhas are great, they aren't the only shoes that work for Capoeira. They are also limited in quantity now a days. I also like Puma's Redon Move MMA shoes. They are fitted to the foot, and they don't have bulky soles or heels - They also look wicked cool. Amazon has them on sale for just $40 - www.zappos.com/puma-redon-move-slip-on-mma-white-peacoat (and no I'm not related to Amazon in any way, I just happened to be looking for shoes for myself) I hope this helps Lance.
