VOICED : Capoeira es patrimonio cultural de la UNESCO

Capoeira, an Afro-Brazilian cultural expression combining dance and martial arts, is recognized by UNESCO as a cultural heritage. Originating in the 16th century, it was a form of disguised combat training for African slaves, often practiced in secrecy. Capoeira involves forming a circle where participants sing, clap, and play instruments like the berimbau while two players engage in a game of skillful and rapid movements. Initially a symbol of resistance against oppression, capoeira is now celebrated worldwide as a cultural treasure.
