Dear Dredeye,
There's all the hope for beginers! It's a question of not giving up, and time reveals!Condition is conditioning! I myself in the begining thought it would be impossible fro me and that I just had no style to that, but seven years after...
But first, look for a real Master, one that shows knowledge about the story and philosophy of Capoeira, because there are lot's of fakes around (people that just start learning and think that because can do some difficult movements can be a Master, but this is just one part of the story.
Give Thanks, AXÉ !
