Capoeira looks difficult. Can I still do Capoeira if I’m not physically fit or have no performing arts or gymnastics experience?
As with movements in any art form, Capoeira moves can look challenging to those who aren’t familiar with the simple techniques that make up each movement. Though previous martial arts and gymnastics experience can be helpful in learning some Capoeira moves, they are by no means required in order to excel at Capoeira. Do not, however, try advanced Capoeira moves and acrobatics, particularly those labeled with warning notices at the start of each video, without having sufficient physical conditioning, strength, or skill, as serious injury may result. Be sure to use qualified spotters when practicing Capoeira moves and always train on soft mats and surfaces when practicing acrobatics to avoid injury.
