The berimbau Rhythm-Iuna
This Rhythm has been explained to me in many different ways by many teachers, and with various meanings.However, I am just going to say that in capoeira regional (in angola it is different), they use this for the jogo dos mestres e professores. They usually accompany this rhythm with The cintura desprezada, or some call it the balanca durada. Which is the advanced sequences mestre bimba taught.they usually just play it on one berimbau and no other instruments are played.

just remember the moving on and off of the gourd from the stomach is very important. It is crucial that you try and get the timing of this otherwise it will not sound the same.
