[jenny73000]

yes, after maybe you don't love ! It's diferent of usual dance !

-------------- Mise à jour de moins de 10 minutes --------------

ok. I must go now because this night I have my show dance and I must prepare me ! bye

[Pommette]

So what's up? Did you go to the "fête de la musique" last night? I guess you celebrate that in Belgium as well.

I was in the city center of Rennes, no rain so I enjoyed it! I saw a good brazilian percussion band, some reggae music, and other stuff.

Hey Annana,

I Enjoy that you're all alive finally

No, I didn't go there. I'm in Québec at the moment and don't know if they celebrate that event.

However, I'll perhaps go to the jazz festival event.

Hi everybody !!! I do it !!! Capoeira ! It's not really a dance but a mix of dance and martial art ! I love music too and it's a good sport ! dance it's my passion since always ! and it's right that brasilian dance it's amazing !!

Well well well ! There is a dance that i don't know
I saw a video on youtube. Seem's like amazing sportive dance

[JokeNowis]

Hey !

To improve our english level together...quite good idea at all

I read any messages 'bout Capoera this afternoon, and i thought to you when i saw a capoera crew few hours ago, in my city, while I was drinking a cofee with friends.
I hadn't my camera at this moment, i wished to post any picture

Capoera setting aside (we already have a dancer ^^), do somebody dance ?
For my part, i dance Rock and Salsa, and i would love to learn Hip Hop =)

See ya

Capoera setting aside (we already have a dancer ^^), do somebody dance ?

I tried capoeira once in Brazil, it was great, however I definitely won't say it's a dance! You must have strength, nimbleness, rhythm, endurance... Capoeira is closer to sport and martial art than to dance!

[JokeNowis]

I totaly agree when you say that you have to be strong, have a good rythm feeling, etc...
But for me when you move your body in rythm, based on a melody or a music: it's dancing, however it's good looking or not.

Sure, we all prefer see somebody burning the dancefloor as Chris Brown or M.Jackson than just moving his feets once left...once right...once left and snapping his fingers.
Don't hide you, i bet you ever met somebody as it, and laughted 'bout him/her with your friends

Actually, i agree with your point of view saying Capoera is a martial art and a sport.
Long time ago (in a galaxy...), Brasilian couldn't practise any violent sport if i remind well, and they found this way to imitate a fight, by dancing.

You're right! They weren't allowed to make any injury to anyone. Therefore, they invented a fight style without touching your opponent.

It's not just about moving a feet left and a feet right: jumps, gymnastic... I prefer seeing capoiera than Chris Brown dancing . Capoeira may look like a break dance battle: you have to "impress" your opponent, you increase gradually.

[JokeNowis]

I prefer seeing capoiera than Chris Brown dancing

As it said in french: "gusts and colors..."

For me, seeing both of them is a pleasure, so i'm not difficult in what i like to watch in dances: Rock, Salsa, Hip Hop, Tango, Capoera, etc...exept classical ^^
(Even so, don't like Chris Brown's style...)

Capoeira may look like a break dance battle: you have to "impress" your opponent, you increase gradually.

One more time, i agree...and disagree with it

The circle made by spectators (singing and playing music) is the same as a Break battle, as a fighting arena.
Yes, you have to impress your opponent, but you have to move according to him, you work with him with a certain notion of respect.
It placing between a couple dance and a single one.
You can dance Capoera lonely, but it reveals its true nature by dancing in "couple".
So for me:
. Dance and Martial Art
. Opponent and partners,
. Fight...and dance

No no, dog isn't biting his tail
Finaly, our points of view are going to the same point, just taking a different way

Thank you !
I love it too.

For my part, i dance Rock and Salsa, and i would love to learn Hip Hop =)

Ho yeah ! That's very great ! I love Rock too but only ''pratice'' with friends for fun.
Love the hip hop too, I've got sister who learn it !
I thing salsa is great.

I wish learn dancing when my administrative situation will be sable.

Thanks for this historic explanation
I love that !

You have to ''impress'' your opponent and by the way, it permise to improve yourself.
I love watching dance battle. So amazing dancer and techniques to see !

For me, seeing both of them is a pleasure, so i'm not difficult in what i like to watch in dances: Rock, Salsa, Hip Hop, Tango, Capoera, etc...exept classical ^^
(Even so, don't like Chris Brown's style...)

In my point of view, I'm not difficult too about the dance to watch ou learn. I just love dancing.
But I'll probably less watch kind of dance like 'tektonic', or baile funk dance, ...
But I've no problem with classical dance.
I love traditional dance too.

Yes, you have to impress your opponent, but you have to move according to him, you work with him with a certain notion of respect.

God, I totally agree with you and I love this point of view.

Finaly, our points of view are going to the same point, just taking a different way

So... when do we dance all of us ?

[JokeNowis]

Wow, so many quotes !!

Love the hip hop too, I've got sister who learn it !
I thing salsa is great.

So lucky she is !!
My ex girlfriend was a really good Hip Hop dancer and i always asked her to learn me...not just to do the show in clubs (ok...a little ) but most of all for me, when i'm single at home and unoccupated.
She didn't want to 'cause she thought she would be a bad teacher.

You ONLY THINK salsa is great ?
Salsa IS great !
It's one of the most sensual dances i know, but less than Bachatta.
D'you know it ?
Listen "Obsession" by Aventura, and "Te extraño" by Xtreme...wonderfull when you dance on it with a good partner, even if you don't know how to dance it so good

love watching dance battle. So amazing dancer and techniques to see !

So...hurry up to watch "Sexy Dance" movies !! =D
Not expansive, and you can watch it as often as you want ^^

But I'll probably less watch kind of dance like 'tektonic', or baile funk dance, ...
But I've no problem with classical dance.

Baile funk dance ?
I've no problem with classical dances, i just don't like it as much..but if somebody pay me i can watch a ballet

I thought a little more at my martial art past than dance, but i found the parallel intersting

So... when do we dance all of us ?

Next year, when we'll all be in Canada with our precious PVT ^^
Why not a little Flash Mob ?

The French equivalent of "America's got Talent"


Jenny, how many belts and levels exists in Capeora ?
Colors belts are they the same as Karaté/Judo (White - Yellow - Orange - Green - Blue - Brown - Black) ?

[DavyBZH]

Yes it's true, he won the french equivalent of "America's got talent".

[go_cel]

[JokeNowis]

Oh, a Salsa girl
D'you know which salsa is (from Porto Rico or Cuba) ?
They are quite similar, but verry different too !

[go_cel]

I know salsa Porto Rico it's more easy that salsa Cuba i think. It's very different!!!!

[JokeNowis]

More sensual than Cuba's one.

[go_cel]

oh i disagree, the salsa cuba is more sensual, when you look rwanda (i don't know say this)
