‘Juego del Palo’ or ‘Game of Sticks’ is a form of Canarian stick fencing and traditional martial art.
Today’s sport is thought to have developed from the use of the Palos or sticks as tools and then for defence and protection.
I visited and photographed Members of the Association de Juego del Palo Canario Maho at a training session in Tefia, Fuerteventura.
