Capoeira da Mata Hawaii, formerly Capoeira Cordão de Ouro CDO Hawaii, is a non-profit organization in Honolulu dedicated to increasing cultural awareness and education through the practice of Capoeira, an Afro-Brazilian art form that combines martial arts, dance, and music. Originally developed by African slaves in Brazil to enhance their fighting skills during the colonial era, Capoeira has evolved into a national sport in Brazil and is now practiced worldwide. With its playful nature, Capoeira welcomes individuals of all ages and physical abilities, offering not only physical benefits such as strength, flexibility, reflexes, and coordination, but also enhancing musicality and overall energy.Generated from the website
