Eskrima -Inayan Sinawali

Description

Inayan Sinawali is a double stick style of training in the filipino martial arts. It uses different striking patterns to develop proficiency with double weapons. Often noted for its fast "weaving" (hence the name Sinawali) of striking patterns when the students interact with each other, this is one of the most fun and easy to learn of the filipino martial arts. Easy to learn but difficult to master. In this tape the standard Inayan Sinawali Drills 2 - count through to 9 - count will be demonstrated. The offside 5 - and 7 - count Sinawalis will be shown along with basic loading (chambering) positions. Sinawali helps to develop eye-hand coordination, timing, footwork, rhythm, focus, sensitivity, fluidity, concentration and hand/wrist flexibility. To further understand the style of Sinawali the following concepts will be demonstrated and explained: matching, mirror, redondo, reverse redondo, complementary, transposing, chasing, chaining and mirror chaining. 56 minutes

A brief comment.......2007-01-03

I studied Inayan escrima through Marc Jackson, a student of Mike's son, Jason, and his daughter, Jena. It is mainly Serrada escrima influenced from Angel Cabales, as Guru Mike was one of the oldest practicing seniors of the art when he did this video. The art of sinawali, originally from the plains of the Philippines, is now justly famous for its grace and beauty and effectiveness. You can't get a better teacher than Guru Mike, and this is one of the best videos I've seen on the subject and covers many of the drills, techniques, and strategies involved in sinawali or doble baston.
