capoeira, from an outsiders view...

It is always so special when we are exposed to an experience that we may have encountered before, but due to our shifts and changes within our self, we are able to create a much more meaningful experience than we had before. This is particularly special when we can use this time to acknowledge the amazing changes that we have moved through, too...

Here is what I wrote, as I sat and watched the beautiful art of Capoeira:

Sitting here watching Capoeira and it is like nothing I have ever seen.

These people move so beautifully, whilst having to be so connected to one another. The physical connection they have is so intimate, but, most importantly - and above and beyond this physical connection - they connect through their energy.

As soon as they begin to feel unsettled or ungrounded in their interaction with one another, they seem to draw themselves either to each other, or to the closest, most-grounded form of energy near them. This 'other' form of energy seems to be 'rooted' by this spiritual, earthly music, which is inspiring and perfect.

They then physically connect, ground one another, and continue with their movements.

Simply by being here, spectating, I feel grounded and connected to my own heart, my mind, and my soul. Perfect. xx
