Let’s take a closer look at a beautiful soft acrobatics movement inspired by Capoeira: the Macaco Switch.

This move might look complex and intimidating at first glance, but with the right approach it becomes accessible, playful, and surprisingly achievable. The Macaco Switch is a powerful example of how acrobatic flow, capoeira fundamentals, and soft acrobatics principles come together into one smooth transition.

In this video, we explore:

how the Macaco Switch works

why it’s more about timing, coordination, and elasticity than raw strength

how to approach it safely using soft acrobatics concepts

how capoeira influences modern movement practice, acrobatics, and flow training

Soft acrobatics focuses on efficiency, control, and adaptability rather than impact or explosiveness. Combined with capoeira’s ginga, rhythm, and circular movement, this creates a style of acrobatics that feels fluid, expressive, and sustainable for long-term practice.
