Hello Stoneleigh! This week we have reached Brazil! Do you want to know how Brazilian martial arts was developed? Well, it's really kind of like African Martial Arts. It was brought over from Africa by slaves and all of the movement in capoeira is based on how animals fight. Two people spar in a circle and they perform this martial art to music. If you watch a performance, it looks a lot like dancing. Mr. Barbosa came to our Jungle Club and taught us how to do capoeira. It was a lot of fun! You should try it - we think you'll like it, too.
