CAPOEIRA: GINGA & COCORINHA

The foundational basic flow movements.

Take a little time to learn this move, but then just play the game.

Put on some of your favorite music.

I’m a huge fan of rap, hip hop, and reggaeton.

I also find this is great to a genre known as trip hop.

I even will do this to jazz or classical.

Think of music that you consider fun and energetic, or smooth and silky.

I could even imagine doing this to RnB.


If you want to create structure, you can do moves on a timer.

I often will use a boxing timer to allow myself ‘rounds’ to practice moves to.

Maybe a full 3 minute boxing round of Ginga play.

Or doing 30 second intervals of different variations of Ginga and Cocorinha.


More than anything.

Have fun.

It’s rare to have a workout regimen that’s fun to do and gives you a mini adventure every session.
