Capoeira: Martial Arts Meets Music & Dance | Salt Lake Capoeira | TEDxSaltLakeCity

[@saltlakecapoeira]

Beautiful!! Thank you, TedxSLC, for letting us to be a part of an amazing and inspiring event!

[@i.am.her.888]

Well done! This is a brilliant piece of choreography. I have watched dance performances my whole life and this was genuine and was a good representation of capoeira despite being presented in a non-intimate setting. Mestre Jamaika is a VERY well respected man in the capoeira world

Cara lindo de mais 😭😭😭 esu es arte

[@mestrerobertosetequedas518]

lindo de se ver.... Parabéns!

I have mixed feelings about this. I love capoeira (I practice it since 1999) and I love listening to inspiring speeches of TEDx guests. Somehow for me this simply does not add up.

[@Pauliuris]

Krzysztof Orzędowski exactly what I thought.

[@raffs6686]

Overly raw and lacking coordination. Intro so good that promised a great performance - then they didn't deliver... Demos were pretty Ok/good.

[@ca_locatelli]

I disagree. I feel that any type of community involvement where capoeira is showcased is extremely important for the art, especially when represented by two incredible Brazilian Mestres like in this video.

[@ca_locatelli]

Raff S, have you been able to get into to a TEDx program somewhere? If so, can you share the link so we can see how well you did yours?

[@MelloCello7]

Like others, I have mixed feelings about this... Integrity of movement was sacrificed for the sake _'art'_ . but in Capoeira, the movement is the art.

[@gaugaumeowmeow]

LIKED IT A LOT!!

[@ca_locatelli]

[@tcanetti5446]

Children of Africa,keep connected to your roots!.

[@nikitafeoktistov8029]

Aline Desiree Kezetmin Africa? Ummm no. Capoeira originated in Brazil.

[@ca_locatelli]

...with African roots.

[@pesa2164]

✊🏼🤘🏼

[@MelloCello7]

Im usually a fan of Ted x Talks and the quality they bring, but this is a miss for me. Integrity of movement was sacrificed for the sake of expression. but in Capoeira, the movement itself _is_ the art.

[@jasonfunderberker6955]

This is beautiful but it's not capoeira. Capoeira is a martial art, it is played by two people together, facing each other. Expressive and acrobatic movements are used, but not as a solo performance, rather as a way of keeping the game dynamic and being unpredictable. Look up capoeira in the tradition of Mestre Bimba to see what capoeira really is.
