This little-known stick-fighting martial art evolved during the 19th century among the sugar plantations of Cuba and it is still practiced on the island. It is said that the Spanish slave owners encouraged their male slaves to fight to the death as a form of entertainment. A pair of men follow choreographed patterns as they dance and fight in a circle. The stick they use is about as thick as a sugar cane and about 16 in (40 cm) long. Mani consists of head butts, punches, palm strikes, sweeps, elbows, and some systems have kicks; the weapon part consists of stick fighting and knife fighting. Master practitioners were called Manisaros.
