Yup, what you just read - a capoeira guy here just told me about this "Muzenza" group. Supposedly those guys are trying to re-create the martial side of Capoeira, so they do full contact sparring, competitions, etc.
Sadly I don´t know more than what the internet tells me. Here are some videos; in the first one, there are nice palm strikes and a lovely KO by kicking at 1:50.

There are more, just search "Muzenza" on youtube.
Here is their official english site.

Thought it would be nice to add a thread on this group. It was about time someone decided to take Capoeira seriously as a combat art, hope you guys enjoy the videos.
