Once I got past that Capoeira has taught me some interesting tricks, I found that the things I like about it are:

  • Ability to express myself
  • Sense of community
  • Personal growth
  • Fitness

What I've wanted to do even before I started Capoeira is a no-hands Cartwheel, or aú sem mao. While I can do the individual pieces required for the technique, getting them to work together has so far proven beyond me.

Perhaps I should use the same technique for aú sem mao as I did last year with the aú batido. Specifically practicing the move on broadcasted video every day. Why:

  • Forcing myself to do it every day
  • Encouragement of my peers

Since I'm already doing #100daysofcartwheels this makes sense.
