In this deep-dive with Ben, we explore how martial arts are more than punches and kicks—they’re about culture, resilience, and survival. We start with Capoeira, a Brazilian art form created by enslaved Africans as a disguise for self-defense. Ben explains how they wove in music, dance, and language to outsmart colonial forces, making Capoeira not just a martial art but a story of resistance. It’s a glimpse into Brazil’s African roots, where culture and combat blend as survival tactics.
From there, we cover the concept of “Flow,” a method that Ben learned from Helio to help smaller fighters adapt to any style. Blending Capoeira, Jiu-Jitsu, and Kung Fu, Ben shows how real fighters find their rhythm and edge by drawing from diverse techniques. He even debunks myths about fluid arts like Capoeira, sharing moments where blending styles gave him an edge in the ring.
We get into the philosophical roots too, from Dio Kamani Sensei’s focus on humility before strength to James Pinkx’s belief in karate’s potential for world peace. Ben shares how spiritual practices—from prayer to mental clarity—are often part of a fighter’s prep, revealing that martial arts isn’t just about winning; it’s a way to face life head-on.
