Gymnastics ?

Question

Do I have to train on gymnastics to get improved in Capoeria ?

Answer 1

No, you won't need gymnastics.  But, gymnastics will help you with balance and things of that nature.  So if you want to take gymnastics and apply it to martial arts, go for it. You may be able to branch out into what they call "tricks" or "extreme martial arts".

Answer 2

No, you don't HAVE to, it would just be an extra help.

Answer 3

If it's a good school they should be able to teach you everything there. Gymnastics definetly couldn't hurt though.

Answer 4

You do not have to train in gymnastics. You simply will as a consequence of training.

I used to take gymnastics lessons for ninpo, but quit when I realized that I had to do all the same work and learn everything the same way -- myself. You are responsible for your own training. Watch, try, repeat as necessary.

Answer 5

You don't have to, but it will improve your skill in the area of acrobatics.
