Five Star Gift Ideas

For your husband who is passionate about capoeira and Brazilian martial arts, there are several meaningful and personal gift ideas that you can consider. These gifts will not just showcase your thoughtfulness but also support his interests and hobbies.

1. Capoeira Workshop: Treat your husband to a capoeira workshop or classes. It will not only allow him to further enhance his skills but also provide an opportunity to connect with fellow enthusiasts. Look for reputable capoeira schools or workshops in your area and surprise him with a gift certificate or enroll him directly.

2. Capoeira Music and Instruments: Capoeira is deeply rooted in music and rhythm. Consider gifting your husband a berimbau, which is the traditional musical instrument played during capoeira. Alternatively, you can gift him an authentic pandeiro (a tambourine-like instrument) or atabaque (a type of drum), allowing him to create the captivating beats for his capoeira sessions.

3. Capoeira Clothing/Apparel: Help your husband show his love for capoeira with stylish and comfortable capoeira clothing. Look for traditional white pants and t-shirts or explore options with vibrant colors and patterns to reflect the energy and spirit of capoeira. Consider customizing the clothing with his name or favorite capoeira symbol for a personalized touch.

4. Capoeira Literature: Expand your husband's knowledge about capoeira by giving him books on the history, philosophy, and techniques of the martial art. Choose from popular titles such as "Capoeira: The Jogo de Angola from Luanda to Cyberspace" by Gerard Taylor or "Capoeira: A Brazilian Art Form: History, Philosophy, and Practice" by Bira Almeida.

5. Brazilian Cultural Experience: Besides capoeira, Brazil has a rich cultural heritage to explore. Plan a surprise trip to Brazil or a local Brazilian cultural festival where he can experience the vibrant music, dance, and traditions. This could be a memorable experience that allows him to immerse himself further in the culture that gave birth to capoeira.

6. Capoeira Artwork: Consider gifting your husband a piece of capoeira-inspired artwork that he can display at home or in his training space. Look for paintings, drawings, or sculptures that depict capoeira movements, the instruments used, or the spirit of the martial art. You can even commission an artist to create a custom artwork specifically for him.

7. Capoeira Documentary or Film: There are several documentaries and movies that beautifully capture the essence and history of capoeira. Gift your husband a DVD or online streaming subscription to watch films like "Only the Strong" or documentaries like "Mestre Bimba: A Capoeira Illuminado" to further deepen his connection to the art form.

Remember, the most important thing is to show that you support and appreciate your husband's passion for capoeira. By selecting a gift that aligns with his interests and allows him to continue pursuing his love for Brazilian martial arts, you will surely make his birthday memorable and special.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.

“It was such a sentimental and romantic present for my husband's birthday (since he is so into astronomy and the moon on the background). The order came super well packaged, and now it is the gem in the basement :)”
