Sinawali on fire

Sinawali is a catchall term from the Filipino martial arts that refers to many patterns of striking with two sticks or short swords. In this photo, I'm doing the most basic sinawali of all - Heaven Six. Poi spinners would recognize it as a three beat weave done with the arms thrown into the motion.
