The 100% Brazilian struggle was created in the 17th century by African slaves of the Bantu ethnicity. Because of its origin, it was officially banned until 1937, although it never stopped being practiced. In the 1930s, the Bahian Manuel dos Reis Machado, Mestre Bimba, took the capoeiristas off the ground, broke the swing and incorporated blows from other fights. His creation, regional capoeira, is still different from capoeira angola, more traditional and disseminated from the 1910s onwards by the Bahian Vicente Ferreira, master Pastinha. In the 20th century, capoeira became a sport, entitled to national confederation. There are even tournaments in which capoeiristas face fighters from other specialties. “In these tournaments, I've seen many come out carrying a stretcher”, says Eliane Dantas dos Anjos, author of a study on the origin of the name of the main blows.
