Vimeo user Gertjan van ginkel recently shared a well-produced and uplifting video capturing some of Capoeira Brasil Holanda’s 2016 batizado and capoeira festival. The video reflects a smooth, bright, and fun side of capoeira, while highlighting the words of guest Mestre Boneco, who imparts positivity, wisdom and experience to the group’s students.
Quality footage of capoeira pre-YouTube can be hard to come by. Here’s a German clip that just popped up on the aforementioned site that shows Mestre João Grande, Mestre Pequeno, and Mestre Boneco in Salvador in 1989. If you do not speak German (like me), take advantage of YouTube’s subtitle auto-translation for a little more insight!
