Gambatte Karate is just really niceGambatte Karate is just really nice



I have watched a few different capoeria demonstrations and sparred against a few people who "claimed" to practice it. The "practitioners" couldn't fight to save their lives, and the demonstrations looked like dance to me. I could see little USEFULT technique in it, but....I don't practice it, and I have no desire to practice it. Could I do the moves? Not right now, but with a bit of practice and a little instruction, probably. Would I ever use it in a self defense situation? Probably not. Thats the main reason I've never taken it up. If I want to learn how to dance, I'll take a hip hop class somewhere. But, I've been accused of being a jerk too...
