Central Park is one of the best places to visit in New York City. Last Sunday, my wife and I went there with a couple of friends to hang out and enjoy the day. The park is amazing, there were a lot of people laying in sun, playing sports, performing shows and much more.

Right before we went home, we were happy to see a group of capoeira performing a very nice show right in the middle of the park. A good number of people gathered around the circle and everyone seemed to really enjoy it the demonstration of the brazilian art, specially me. I took advantage of the moment and shot a video of the Capoeira group. The group is called Grupo Capoeira Brasil and they’re located at New York City. Boneco is the Master (Instructor) of the group and Caxias the counter-master.

Capoeira is a blend of martial art, game, and dance originated in Brazi during the 16th century, it was created and developed by native Indians in Brazil and the slaves.
