Ginga Saroba, a pioneer Capoeira group in Auroville by Prof. Samuka da Índia and his students, under the guidance of Mestre Branco.

Officially created in 2015 as a branch of Ginga Nagô, Ginga Saroba is a Capoeira group based in India. It was started by Samuka da Índia and his students, with the approbation and guidance of Mestre Branco. We work on developing the Capoeira form inherent to each individual in the respect of the tradition and in the understanding of the actual evolution of Capoeira. But also bring awareness about the Brazilian culture and share it. What is the origin of the group's name?

'Saroba' has for origin fitness club (gym) and was used as an antonym of 'sarado' which designates someone with a body well cut and worked out. From there it started to be used by some Capoeira group to designate capoeiristas who don't have a certain expected aesthetic in their game. For us Saroba is a questioning: What are we trying to achieve with Capoeira? If you want to explore the answer, meet the our family in Auroville and / or Pondicherry.
