The Hardest Capoeira Kicks that are Useless in Actual Fights

[@maxzhao8331]

they may be ineffective in a fight but these movements are great at increasing athleticism and body awareness!

[@Madlion]

all kicks are useful if u know how to use it well in the right situation, even when the scenarios where the kicks are suitable can be

1:44 could this kick not be transitioned into a martelo de negativa

1:18 hum, i can see a setup to a 'omoplata lock', and maybe with some adaptation, some 'sacrifice position' from judo, whre you feet go to adversary stomak, not to kick, but to pull it to you and make you throw him another side. 1:34 IDK, the capoeirist that i see fight against a kickboxer loses, but he did some defense that worked and look like was made from this position or close to this position. Is the OLD VIDEO called "MMA - Capoeira vs. Kickboxe" at 25 seconds. Please, comment if you saw the video.

I think it's all about the force you put in it.

These are creative and beautiful kicks, and there are way more kicks that you can use that actually do work. But I wonder if there is a way to make this these kicks work. Other than for the malícia especially for the moves in capoeira Angola's game, why were these moves used in a roda?

[@Madlion]

U can google capoeira coriorca which was a more lethal version used by thugs with hidden razor blades for criminal purposes. They had many weird moves as well but with a sharp blade attached any weird move can become deadly... Also many moves were prolly inspired by african traditions. And people train it more for the capoeira game rather than fighting which is what some regionale groups try to do. But watching them u can also see they condense to basic moves like kicks and hand slaps etc, no fancy moves anymore.

I read in a capoeira book, that some kicks is tô parry arms with wippe graves..

[@MOOCHREVIEWS]

All kicks are useful for capoeira, they did a sports science you can look it up. Those kicks are most powerful and also offensive cause your face and body isn’t by the person. It beat all other martial arts in sports science. Just facts.

He was wrong about that first cake because I just seen someone get knocked out in MMA by that kick.

[@Asrajzz64]

A lot of the Capoeira kicks are extremely useful and kicking is mostly what Capoeira's about. And of course you should optimize other martial arts techniques in your fighting.

[@uberdonkey9721]

In general Capoeira isn't for self defense. I train it.

Capoiera is BEST But 👇 . . . . . . only for movies entertainment 😊

[@fenostalgicmanrooster4898]

My theory is that capoeira is a striker martial art from a LONG DISTANCE. because you have to run if you was a slava at colonial Brasil's time. So, as you run away is a possibility, your enemy have to think about this, and not only about capoeira strikes.Thats way capoeira vs thai maybe is easy to a thai boxer 'read' the capoeira moves, because you dont have to think about your opponent create a space to leave.
