Here's a terrific Youtube video showing a capoeira class for children with disabilities. The music is gorgeous too. I'm afraid the subtitles are small and blurred, so you'd have to click on the full screem button on the bottom right hand corner of the video. Capoeira is a beautiful martial arts practiced in Brazil. It has fluid, smooth movements and looks like dancing. It's pretty awesome how the capoeira teacher has taught children with different disabilities, including Down's syndrome. She has faith in her students and believe that they can do brilliantly, despite other people telling her what she's doing won't work. Some of the students are also interviewed, and it's great to see that they're so motivated and enthusiastic. :)
