Capoeira regional isn't technically capoeira. Cap. is a like a cake. If you just use some of it's ingredients then you know longer have cake. If you take away the roda, the music, the traditions, the chamadas, the theatricality, the philosophy, etc... and just use some watered down techniques to fight somebody, you are not doing capoeira. You're just throwing eggs. Actually, egg throwing would make a better fight.
