Mestre Suassuna

Here you will find information about Mestre Suassuna, one of the most respected Capoeira masters in the world and the president of the "Grupo Cordão de Ouro". Mestre Suassuna is known for being responsible for making Capoeira grow and get strong in São Paulo, Brazil. Also, he is the creator of the Miudinho game, a specific attempt to make sure Capoeiristas know how to have a "close conversation" with their partners when playing in the roda.

Miudinho

Mestre Suassuna says that the Miudinho game became polemic because it’s been interpreted as a new Capoeira style, but this is not true. It's just another type of game. For this, he created a new toque for the berimbau and the other instruments, and the capoeiristas perform movements that resemble the way Capoeira used to be played long time ago, but this time the player is supposed to do them a little faster, with a lot of movements low to the ground...
