Capoeira

The jumping-off point for the training will be traditional body techniques and movement codes adapted from Capoeira Angola and Capoeira Regional, which can be used in both stage work and everyday human interaction. The transformations and “pivotal points” developed by the Two Paths Studio will serve as the basis for exploring Afro-Brazilian culture in search of an individual and group body language. An important part of the work will be learning traditional musical rhythms and songs of capoeira and candomblé. Participants will learn how capoeira enables an individual process of creative expression through body, voice and sound.
