First one was a cool takedown. I liked how he transitioned it. I wish the video was better quality.

Same. I actually said "nice" alone in a room all by myself when he scored that takedown.

It lookd forced when he did his cap stunts. It looks like he did it just to 'represent'.

Not really. Not all Capoeristas do the dancing aspect of it only or primarily. There's a fighting version that's more practical, and rivals the effectiveness of most other Stand-up Arts I've ever seen.

it's probably the best art for conditioning, depends on the style too. Their are two styles Angola(sp) and Reginal. The first is more the old mans game, where you fight close and it's all about controling your core, alot of odd postions and such, the later is the one that uses momentum and has all the flashy spins and flips,, both are great and I hope to get back into it when I move away agian,, CAPOIERA= BEST CARDIO+WORK OUT imo

I think the transition to the takedown was a fluke. It looked to me like he fell from the leg kick the other guy did. When he fell, he automatically did a negative-role, as do all capoeiristas in general. The guy's leg happened to be there and he grabbed it.
It was still cool.
