Salve Jorge!  The martyrdom of St. Geroge is celebrated on 23 April. In different places in Brazil, due to religious syncretism, St. George also represents the Orixás Oxossi and Ogum. Here is my tribute to São Jorge. The songs&#8217; lyrics were translated and I hope they&#8217;ll help you understand more about the Brazilian culture and [...]]]></description>

After I wrote Paulo Freire&#8217;s Philosophy of Education and the &#8216;Politics of Capoeira&#8217; students and friends became more curious to discuss his work. His method has been a frequent topic in classes, trips, and e-mail conversations. Looking for resources in English I found some bits and pieces of interviews, seminars, and websites that might help [...]]]></description>

Politicking is a power and money-driven practice of a few, which causes the withdrawal of many devoted students and young instructors in Capoeira. Conversely, politics can be a way to engage and take action against politicking and other unhealthy practices within the art. A way of re-organising Capoeira towards more noble values and purposes within [...]]]></description>

Sometimes the background explanation for these withdrawals is, indeed, [...]]]></description>

Matters of authenticity are very often related to aesthetic values, socio-centrism, and market reserve. The concept is usually applied attempting to validate or to quantify one&#8217;s perspective or practice over somebody else&#8217;s. It is also frequently based upon myths of purism; an ironic approach for an interdisciplinary and intercutural practice like Capoeira.
