It's a Brazilian martial art that is a cross between fighting and dancing, but it's really artistic. In fact, it's not supposed to be violent at all - hits are usually implied - and the matches are called games, traditionally set to live music. I guess there is a lot of improvisation involved and I've read it described as a "conversation between two bodies" before.

Google for "capoeira videos" and you'll probably come across some cool stuff.
