    capoeira is played by two people who agree, up to certain point, that they will cooperate with each other. however, every game of capoeira has malisya, yes it means the same thing as what you're thinking. in capoeira trust is not a virtue, and to receive your playmate's blessing or bencao isn't always a good thing. the old saying "never trust a capoeirista, especially when he's smiling" holds true every time you step into the roda. don't even trust the people playing the instruments as they control the tempo of the game. if you want to play, develop malisya because if you step into the roda for a jogo and you're a shiny, happy, trusting sort of person, you will get hurt, "accidentally" of course.

     

    to see more of capoeira outside a video arcade, i recommend the following movies:

    -rooftops, 1989.

    very, very bad. only worth watching because of the capoeira, which was given a different name in the movie.

     

    -only the strong, 1993.

    a marginally better movie, with some good music. most people will recognise the mazda song "zoom zoom zoom". it also has real capoeiristas performing in the beginning and end of the film. marc dacascos was trained by a real capoeira instructor prior to the film.

     

    -catwoman, 2004.

    a complete waste of halle berry, but she trained hard for the movie, and even got injured performing her own stunts.

     

    -ocean's twelve, 2004.

    the moves performed by the "night fox" as he prepares for his heist are typical capoeira.

     

    -blade, 1998.

    -blade2, 2002.

    -blade trinity, 2004. aside from having a fifth degree black belt in karate, wesley snipes is also a highly ranked practicioner of capoeira.

     

     

    wow... where can i learn capoeira? and how much it would cost?
