Chinlone is a 1,500-year-old activity that combines elements of sport and dance.  Teams compete and are judged on how gracefully they perform their moves, but there are no "winners" and "losers." 

Americans are likely to be unfamiliar with it, except for its resemblance to hacky sack.

The Wikipedia description is here, and "Mystic Ball," an award-winning movie about chinlone has a home page here.
