This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

Well, we finally did it! After months of planning, researching, and hard work we made it to São Paulo Brazil in order to find the best Capoeira instruments for CapoeiraConnection.com. We really wanted to search out and put our hands on everything we were bringing to our community… So that’s exactly what we did. Check out the vlog to see how we get hand made Capoeira Instruments from Brazil directly to you.

In this video we detail exactly how each of our capoeira bateria (Gunga, Médio, and Violas) are matched up and prepared before we ship them out. The key is to string up multiple vergas and tune them before even picking out the cabaças. Once we find 3 matching vergas (with distinct sounds for each berimbau) we choose the appropriate cabaças and finalize the set. Every bateria is hand selected just for you. 🙂
