Fitness - March 12th - 3rd period

The gym as always was very gym like, nothing overly different except that the mats were kind of squishy when walked on.

"Good Morning everyone! We’re continuing today with Capoeria. Like before, I would like you to break up into partners for your sparring. Now I don’t expect anyone to be able to do the acrobatics that they were performing on the videos last week, but," Yondaime paused with a grin and a smile. "I won’t be disappointed if any of you surprise me."



"First though, some points to cover on the handout for Capoeria." He continued, glancing at the handout for notes. "The roda is the circle that you need to stay in while you are fighting, traditionally it’s a ring of people, but we obviously don’t have a big enough class for that, which is why I drew out the lines on the mats. Sadly the mats are a little wet, but the lines are still mostly visible. Hits are feigned or just shown, they are not made to actually hit unless your opponent wants them to for his or her own move. Capoeria is said to be one of the more philosophical martial arts, as the teachers emphasize: respect, responsibility, safety, cleverness and liberty.

"Now why would they teach those specific philosophies?"

[Sorry for the lateness, and thanks to Kry for posting the update for me! OCD coming soon is up.]

Kabuto, naturally, had a smartass remark handy. But he kept his peace, merely smirking and allowing someone else to reply.
