"Mallakhamb" or "How to Look Awesome in an Orange Speedo"

First Off, It's 2011... Happy New Year Everyone
If “All Chinese know kungfu,” hold any truth, then the populous country of India can definitely trump that saying with the fine art of Mallakhamb . The word "Mallakhamb" is composed of malla which denotes a gymnast or a man of strength and khamb which means a pole. Mallakhamb can therefore be translated to English as pole gymnastics. (More on wikipedia). Not to be confused with the dance version, it’s EXTREME!

"The Spine aspires to be the central axis of all things interesting." & "How to look Awesome in an Orange Speedo?" haha mm cool taglines!

Anyway whether it's pole gymnast or pole dance, both require exxxtreme physical strength. Without that, it's impossible :)
