带位系统最早源自与巴西战舞最伟大的两位导师之一的Mestre Bimba。最早所用的是丝制的围巾,本意是用以表达对前辈巴西战舞练习者们的敬意,因为过去的巴西战舞斗士相信把丝巾绑在脖颈上可以保佑自己不被刀刃伤害。不同的巴西战舞团体都拥有各自的带位体系,而Capoeira Aché Brasil学院的带位系统正是建立在巴西国旗的三种颜色之上。
Graduation System
The graduation system was introduced into capoeira by Mestre Bimba, with scarves (a homage to former capoeiristas who wore silk scarves around their neck thus believing to be protected from the cut of razorblades). Even though the scarves were not used by the students, each student kept it after receiving one. Nowadays, the graduation system may vary from one group to another. Capoeira Aché Brasil’s graduation system is based on the colours of the Brazilian flag.
