Etiquette in capoeira is like gravity - you can't see it but it rules everything. Use three berimbaus. Don't cross the instruments when you volta ao mundo. When you volta, make a completed circle. Wait to play by crouching down. Wait to play by standing up. Don't buy the game during a chorus. Only the buy the game during a chorus, never a verse.…
