Capoeira actually was a martial art disguised as a dance practiced by the African slaves in South America, specifically Brazil.

KUREK!!!

actually, the African slaves in south america were not allowed by their owners to practice MARTIAL ARTS...so they "disguised" it as a dance with music as accompaniment...diri ra ko kutob...

Jui-jitsu also is not native to BRAZIL...the word Jui-jitsu is the Brazilian way of saying the Martial Art Jujutsu in Japan...or in others words it ORIGINATED in Japan and brought to Brazil and they Developed it and was called Jui-jitsu(gsyoo-cgitsoo) not sure sa pronounciation...please call my attention if u think I am wrong with my presentation...

@yokam - I am uprehensive with the list imung gebuhat Mark...LUTA LIVRE, VALE TUDO...I do think dili na sila Martial Arts, I think competition na cya...called Valle Tudo...not sure lang ha...pero expound kuno gamay...ang muduwa ug LUTA LIVRE kay ang tawag "LUTADOR" murag WWE na Wrestling na cya guro... and naa pato lain term they say in ENGLISH "ANYTHING GOES" unsa gani na sa PORTUGUESE?...anyone help me out...please correct me if Im wrong...

I would like to think that most of these disciplines are of hybrid forms. Capoeira is the only distinct one I know.
