BA Update: Capoeira in the Park

The weekend before last, we hit a local park to shop, sorta an arts show, very kool. Lots of people sittin' around in clear areas, enjoying the weather. Some folks practicing and demo-ing capoeira, the Brazillian dance/martial art. I understand tht Brazillian slaves came up with it because they couldn't practice any "martial art" but they could dance. So they came up with a self-defense system that looked more like a dance/acrobatics... pretty smart and very kool to watch. I made about a 6 minute iMovie video with some good tunes to show what we saw. Enjoy.

I posted it at .mac info, a review site... you can vote for it there if ya like it. 8-)
