Capoeira Movement Library

The idea behind the Capoeira Movement Library is to provide you with a comprehensive compilation of Capoeira related movements all in one place. Every video presents the basic form of the movement along with some variations, combinations and perhaps examples of use.

While it is hardly possibly to include everything that exists in Capoeira world , I nevertheless decided to undertake the challenge to make the catalog as extensive as possible.

*Please keep in mind that the movements and their names may vary across different Capoeira schools.

The library IS CONSTANTLY growING.
