Review of Michael Stillwells from Los Angeles, CA United States

WOW - CAPOEIRA AT ITS BEST

I loved this video because It shows what the real capoeira is all about, weather you are a capoeirista or not, beginner or advanced! It has unique techniques never seen in any other capoeira tape out there....the music and girls are amazing too... a must watch.
