Hello Andy,
Go down to the bottom of the page and click "English Version." Not all the various parts of the site are translated, but at least you can get the basic history.

Hello,
very cool website! I tried the first three vids, links didnt work.
Wow.
That's a lot of exchanges for no sudden howls or sucking of fingers.

The pictures remind me of Jogo du Pau, the 13th century Portugese stick system. I took a class this summer at one of the WMA events. Very fascinating.
Thanks for sharing,

Yeah, similar, but Jogo do Pau is likely no early that 18th century...or cannot trace its roots further than that.

I thought this was excellent. Look at the girl's single hand action at around 16 to 17 seconds in to the vid.
