I used this 5-hit combo in my capoeira training hahaha. Man, it was so awesome to pull it off without any trouble with stance, flexibility, kicks and coordination.

I used this 5-hit combo in my capoeira training hahaha. Man, it was so awesome to pull it off without any trouble with stance, flexibility, kicks and coordination.
Let me explain better: this combo can fit into capoeira, and each of these moves has specific names. You can. The main point here is: "malícia".
"Malícia" in capoeira is about trying to trick, outsmart and confuse your opponent with kicks that follow a different rhythm, but with the same purpose. The last two kicks are like flying side kicks, or almost a "martelo", or a reverse spinning kick on the final move.
After that, you go back to ginga again and give space to your opponent, but without actually hitting them.

the part i like is that you're not just executing moves, you're getting the philosophy behind it. that's the real learning right there
-
a 5-hit combo AND the explanation?? you're showing out 🔥
-
malicia sounds like the move name for what i'm doing when i pretend i'm not watching someone's form so i can copy it later
-
hold on 14 days and you're already doing flying side kicks??? i'm still figuring out how to walk into the gym with confidence
-
wait so malicia is like the mind game part, not just the physical moves? that sounds way more interesting than i expected
-
do you feel the malicia part coming naturally, or is that something you have to think through on every rep?
