Picked up some of the dueling swords and a smarra by Yixuan (via swordshop). Tossed on basic dry epee blades from Absolute Fencing.
The tang of the epee needs shortening for the smarra but the dueling swords are good to go.

NEW VIDEO! This one looks at the legendary life of Jean-Louis Michel. Seriously, his life reads like it's straight from a Dumas novel.

In this vid, fencers probe via blade pressures to see how their partner reacts.
They step out, so it again, and attempt to execute their counter.
Coach is able to change reaction after every touch.

The floor was slick since they resealed it, so we kept footwork/explosiveness chiller.
Little more actions on the blade work (envelopment) with either a glide to the high line or a flanconade to the low line.

Sandbox Exercise!
We gave our fencers’s a fun sword & cloak problem — how to get out of an opponent’s cloak bind.
Was fun to see what folks came up with. Here are a few ideas they came up with!

Working some target decision making based on distance in this one.
If I just provide counter-pressure to Eli’s engagement & pressure he can disengage to the body. If I step back while providing counter-pressure, he goes for the hand instead.

A good time #fencing was had at the Smallsword Symposium over the weekend (https://blackboarswordarts.com/smallsword-symposium Particularly interesting to me was Martin Dougherty's class on how to fence #smallsword properly and avoid looking like a poor reimplementation of epee (i.e. to be […]
Quality play with emphasis on the fleeting thrust and adaptations from that. All in freeform for the whole session.

Foto auf einem Mittelaltermarkt. Ich (Frau Ende 20 mit langen, dunkelblonden Haaren) stehe in einem Fantasy-Mittelaltergewand seitlich vor der Kamera. In der rechten, vorderen Hand halte ich ein kurzes, rapierähnliches Schwert in die Höhe, auf der linken Hand sitzt ein Greifvogel mit dunklem Gefieder, weiß gesprenkelter Halskrause und rot am Kopf. Ich schaue in die Kamera, der Vogel zu mir.
Am Wochenende habe ich Inka kennengelernt, den #Schopfkarakara der Greifvogelauffangstation Mittelfranken🪶 Eine ganz schön selbstbewusste Dame!
Danke an Andreas und sein Team für die spontane Möglichkeit zu diesem Foto "mit Klinge"! 🙏🏼

Something I find kinda cool.
While most smallswords has unusable finger rings, and are just vestigial decorative remnants of earlier rapiers, spanish smallswords and some italian smallswords actually have usable finger rings!
