Brazilian Dance/Martial Art Capoeira Empowering SA Youth

Twice a week in some of the more disadvantaged townships around Cape Town, kids between the ages of 8 and 12 are learning Capoeira. The dance-martial art from Brazil, which has its roots in African Slavery, is coming back to the continent and is serving as a  source of development, discipline and self-expression for some of South Africa’s youth.
