Fighting "Style"

The fighters constantly move and change positions, which is illustrated by the fact that there is no “fighting stance” (or stances) that dominate a fighter’s strategy as there are in many martial arts, instead there is a ginga, which is a series of movements where the fighter constantly steps forward and backward as he or she changes positions, swaying his or her arms and upper body to accompany the footwork.  The fighters are always dancing and never still.  Fighters use their hands to strike, their feet to kick and sweep, and their head to butt, generally.
