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.
