Capoeira Angola is an African-Brazilian cultural art form created by Africans enslaved in Brazil, as a method of emancipation. Capoeira has roots in the Bantu tradition and was used by enslaved Africans to combat the colonial oppression of the Portuguese rulers. Capoeira Angola combines culture, philosophy, martial arts, dance, ritual, and music into a fluid, graceful game of wit and skill.xml version='1.0' encoding='%SOUP-ENCODING%'
