According to Pineda, the practitioners of Capoeira, or Capoeiristas, became such powerful fighters that the nation of Brazil outlawed its practice and attempted to hunt down and expatriate all Capoeiristas. The Brazilian government could not hold down this powerful movement, and eventually the Capoeiristas were heroes in Brazil. It became similar to a national religion, practiced in schools, clubs and the military. It has also reached tremendous popularity throughout the world. The capoeira club meets Wednesday and Friday at from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. and is open to anyone.
All members enjoy the meetings and try to practice whenever possible.
