CULTURE

Capoeira in the U.K. has manifested itself in a way that reflects the Brazilian cultural origins of the art and the cultural practises of the people who practise it here.

This multi-cultural fusion has not only influenced our members, sometimes encouraged them to experience other cultures and travel to events as far as Indonesia. But many an Anglo-Brazilian sub culture has formed.

This is the case in most places where Capoeira is practised where a fusion of the Brazilian and Capoeira cultures fused with the native ones. But also this has lead the Brazilian culture to become influenced greatly by a wide variety of cultures world-wide. Creating a large cultural melting pot that is Capoeira.

We are very interesting in these cultural manifestations and how Capoeira has aided and influenced our culture, and that of others.

We welcome discussion and debate on any cultural points of interest that relate to the art.

Please get in touch.
