TEDxTufts Talk
“What do our movements say
about who we are?” (2016)
Do our movements define us? Cristina Rosa explores the answer to this question by talking about and demonstrating the Afro-Brazilian aesthetic -- a different way of moving across and thinking about the world.
Similar to contact improvisation, capoeira angola is a process-oriented practice, whose central actions are shaped up non-verbal dialogues of participatory improvisation or call-and-response playful interactions. Unlike contact-improvisation, capoeira players avoid direct physical contact between players. instead, players are linked by sight and rhythm.
In this excerpt above, recorded at the International Foundation of Capoeira Angola in Seattle, Rosa plays with Leika, theater at that location.
