This is a nice clip.

"Since most of our conscious modes of conceptualizing, acting and moving about are conditioned in part by our language, to use the language of another culture is to use that culture's ideas; and to use another culture's ideas in place of one's own is to relegate the latter to a position of de facto inferiority."

I was just looking at this again and that last encounter sent someone to the floor face first.

There was this forum where they were saying that Capoeria had a lot of Laamb (wrestling) in it. And if you look at the Senegalese wrestlers and think look at this video and even think about techniques like arrastao, vingativa and its counter, kwk you can see where the grappling was integrated into the art.

Fascinating thing about Capoeira is that there's so much there. This goes beyond the roda and luta so-called dichotomy. Unfortunately it would seem that this often goes unexplored...

You mean the jogo and luta dichotomy?

Yes there is much there indeed!
