While many who practice Capoeira view it as a ritual or a game or an acrobatic display etc. Abibifahodie Capoeira situates its orientation as more in tune with the period in time when Afrikans used Capoeira as a practical tool for combat in avoiding enslavement, liberating ourselves from enslavement, in the Kilômbo, in war and in the streets following the two core principles of Capoeira: 1) Doing the appropriate thing at the appropriate time (the Ma’at concept of propriety) 2) Attacking without being attacked (also useful for guerrilla warfare). As such, Abibifahodie Capoeira’s mission is to play a significant role in the restoration of Capoeira to its practical purposes, objectives and goals for the Liberation of Afrikan people throughout space and time.
