African slaves used capoeira to maintain and strengthen their cultural identity while fighting persecution.
Capoeira is a game, a dance, and combat, all guided by the brutal rhythm of the berimbau, a native African musical instrument. Capoeira spread throughout Brazil, including the states of Bahia, Rio de Janeiro, and Pernambuco, despite attempts to eradicate the practice. Traditional capoeira masters such as Mestre Pastinha (Capoeira Angola) and Mestre Bimba (Capoeira Regional) made significant contributions to the art by creating more standardised styles, Angola and Regional.
