A proud milestone for our Capoeira community during the 14th Encontro Cultural Internacional “A Hora é Essa”.
Capoeira Cordão de Ouro Malaysia Achieves Asia Record
On 10 October 2026, Capoeira Cordão de Ouro Malaysia (CDOM) proudly achieved official recognition from Asia Record for:
“Most Participants Performing Capoeira Aú Cartwheel Simultaneously in 2026”
This milestone marks a special moment in our journey of promoting Capoeira, bringing together Capoeiristas to celebrate unity, movement and the rich cultural heritage of this Afro-Brazilian martial art.
A Milestone Worth Celebrating
The achievement was part of our event 14 Encontro Cultural Internacional “A Hora é Essa”, held from 8–11 October 2026.
During this special gathering, participants came together to perform the Aú, one of Capoeira’s most recognisable movements, simultaneously.
The Aú, commonly known as the Capoeira cartwheel, represents much more than an acrobatic movement. It reflects coordination, balance, strength and the continuous flow of movement that makes Capoeira unique.
What made this achievement truly special was not simply the record itself, but the people who came together to make it possible.
More Than Just a Record
For Capoeira Cordão de Ouro Malaysia, this recognition represents years of dedication to building a strong and inclusive Capoeira community.
Under the leadership of Mestre Braulio, Capoeira Master, CDOM has continued to introduce Capoeira to children and adults through regular classes, workshops, cultural exchanges and community events.
Since its establishment in Malaysia in 2012, the academy has grown into a community that welcomes students of different ages, backgrounds and abilities.
Through Capoeira, we aim to develop not only physical fitness, coordination and confidence, but also discipline, respect, creativity and cultural appreciation.
This Asia Record achievement is a reflection of the collective effort of our students, instructors, visiting guests and supporters who continue to contribute to the growth of Capoeira.
Celebrating the Spirit of Capoeira
The event brought together Capoeiristas to learn, exchange knowledge, celebrate achievements and strengthen friendships through Capoeira.
The event also provided an opportunity to introduce the wider Malaysian community to Capoeira, highlighting its unique combination of martial arts, music, movement and Brazilian cultural traditions.
We hope this achievement will inspire more people to discover Capoeira and encourage other Capoeira schools and communities to continue growing together.
A Heartfelt Thank You
This milestone belongs to everyone who helped make it possible.
To our students, parents, instructors, visiting Mestres, Professores, Capoeiristas, event partners and supporters: thank you for your dedication, energy and trust.
We are also grateful for the support of the Ministry of Youth and Sports Malaysia, Aurelius Healthcare and everyone who contributed to the success of 14 Encontro Cultural Internacional “A Hora é Essa”.
Most importantly, we hope this recognition brings greater awareness to Capoeira, not only in Malaysia but throughout the region.
This Asia Record is not just an achievement for our academy. It is a celebration of the Capoeira community and everyone who stood together to make history.
