General overview of grades

This ladder is not yet attributed to a specific organisation. Federations differ in belt colours and time requirements.

Capoeira Contemporânea blends traditional Capoeira Angola elements with dynamic Capoeira Regional acrobatics. Its Corda system (from raw Corda Crua to white Corda Branca) evaluates Roda game fluidity, acrobatic Floreios, Meia Lua kicks, and music leadership.
