Capoeira originated in Brazil during the 16th century, developed by African slaves who blended their cultural traditions with elements of Brazilian indigenous and Portuguese influences. It was initially practiced as a form of resistance and self-defense disguised as a dance to evade detection by slave masters. Over time, capoeira evolved into a martial art that encompasses music, acrobatics, and improvisation, becoming a symbol of Afro-Brazilian culture. Today, it is celebrated worldwide for its artistic expression and athleticism, maintaining its roots in community and cultural identity.
A roda is a Portuguese circle dance. It can refer to the entire evening of dance or just to a few specific dances. A few dances that are included in a traditional roda are capoeira, maculele and samba de roda.
Samba music was never called 'samba de roda'. Roda means 'circle formed by people', and it was more commonly used in capoeira, during the slavery. Samba de Roda is something under the influence of capoeira and samba, samba is the dance (as you may guess), but it's done in a roda with characteristic instruments of capoeira and Brazilian culture: Berimbau, Pandeiro, Atabaque etc. So, Samba de Roda has its own music with its own type and own characteristics and different from its original.
