Street Roda

So last weekend, as I was out walking around with some friends, I stumbled onto a street roda. It was being put on by a regional group that trains downtown, and while I wasn't exactly dressed for the occasion (jeans can be somewhat limiting), I decided to kick off my flip-flops and jump in for a few games. I may or may not have almost been put on my ass by their instructor....but regardless, it was pretty fun. Here are a few pics that my friend Greg took...

The roda begins...




I don't think these require explanation (there are only so many blonde capoeiristas in Maputo)...
