Abstract
In this study, we identify and assess the reasons for rivalry and violence within capoeira groups in Piuma (Brazil). This study is descriptive and interpretative. The data was collected by using semi-structured interviews performed with all capoeira teachers of such municipality and interpreted by Critical Discourse Analysis. The reasons for rivalry and violence in capoeira are different in all senses, since each subject interprets such problem differently. Such reasons show an analysis which stresses the need to keep and weight the rivalry and violence to comprise capoeira groups; simultaneously, pointing out the solidarity as an option to establish a new basis for interaction.Keywords: Capoeira - Rivalry - Violence - Solidarity
