I netflixed the intensely bad movie "The Protector" for the sole purpose of seeing Lateef Crowder do some pretty awesome Capoeira for 3 minutes. Lateef is an ex-student of Capoeira of San Jose, which is the school I've been training at for a few months. And now thanks to YouTube you can see some good Capoeira without being a dumbass and suffering through the rest of the movie like I did: (Filthy Google Reader users, you will need to click through to see this embedded you-tube video.) Note: we don't typically play Capoeira half naked in standing water with fires blazing all around, but now that I've seen this movie I think I'm going to suggest that we do our classes like that from now on. |
