Their games looks just slightly different, their Chamadas(did I spell that right?) look a little more interactive than what I’ve seen so far, I’ve always wanted to train in different countries, I can’t wait for the other countries to be posted.

What exactly do you mean by chamadas? I always thought chamadas were the angola “ritual” type movements where two people get close to eachother and set up traps.

Are you talking about the throws they do together? I believe those are Cintura Desprezada, which are acrobatic training exercises created by Mestre Bimba.

ah, yeah that’s what I was talking about, sorry about the mix up.
