A few weeks ago while in New Hope, PA I had the pleasure of meeting, Leigh Robertson who owns an academy in Lambertville, NJ where she teaches Capoeira, a form of martial arts combined with music. Capoeira was developed in Brazil by African slaves to resist oppression 400 years ago. Her description of it intrigued me and prompted me to view the many videos posted on her website http://www.newhopecapoeira.com/live/. I couldn’t help but think how this sport/art form could enhance fitness, balance and strength for equestrians. It could also improve the sense of rhythm which is important for all riders. I can remember my trainer, the late Jean-Claude Racinet, giving me lessons devoted to trying to feel the beat of a correct 3 beat canter vs a 4 beat canter, something I thought was a lot easier than it actually was.
Have a look yourself and contact Leigh if you would like more information. info@newhopecapoeira.com
What a great way to keep fit and have fun (especially during the winter months!)
