  10. Does anybody know what Sinawali(sp?) is?
  11. I've heard it's a brazilian martial art, and I think it
  12. might be the style used in the movie "The Mighty Quinn".
  13.  
  14. Apparently, it uses a lot of spinning techniques from the ground, and
  15. looks like a cross between northern-style kung fu and breakdancing.
  16.  
  17. Does anyone practice it, or know where it's taught?  It looks like
  18. it could be a great complement to "hard" style linear arts.
