Review of Capoeira Tourism

Im living in Brazil now, and love Capoeira, and this is a wonderful vingette of what Capoeira is really like to foreigners.
Lots of good sound of music, 'playing Capoeira' and Brazilian scenes. A good introduction into Capoeira for the listener.
This is not a narrative though of a tourist endeavor at going to Brazil to play Capoeira, but a description of how Capoeira is changing and Bahia, Brazil is reacting to international popularity of the sport, which I find preferable.
