Funky
These top two are really good training videos - with the funky first, and then the transition into Maracatu.
Do the hand tapping (below) first to get the rhythm, and then get the beaters into it, (right)
Get on top of the standard transition into and out of Maracatu first.
At 1.42 Fabio goes into the more complex transition ‘with special’. He starts of pretty fast. If you are just learning, skip past this to 2.25 when he slows it down. It’s easier to learn it from there.
