Sarah wrote about five of these exercises for Asian World Of Martial Arts.

Sarah wrote about this side of Slice for Fightland.

Crash
For a bunch of otherwise normal, polite people us Canadians make some way fucked up and perverted films.
A side-effect of making these lurid films is that they in turn impact impressionable young minds.
