Sample Capoeira Class: Partner Play

 

Summary

We practice more advanced ginga sequences, and working with a partner (or moving around a chair). We learn a new attack kick, rabo de arraia, “tail of the stingray”. We learn how to incorporate the new kick with ginga and meia lua de frente. We practice using these kicks in a sequence with a partner, and how to escape with aú de cabeça.

Continuing Explorations:
Practice moving through each step of the rabo de arraia, making sure to go into and out of it on both sides. Practice moving in and out of rabo de arraia with the ginga.
