DESCRIPTION:
Format: Activity Class Gear: Arming Sword, Buckler, Solid Protection for Head, Hands and Body Description: This class will build off the 90 minute Open Class Fundamentals of I.33: The Three Key Plays of Prima Custodia - attendance in that class is required. We will use those plays, as well as key plays of Secunda Custodia and the Priest's "Special Langort" to develop a tactical framework for exploring the fight, assessing the adversary, planning a strategy and developing the specific tactics necessary to survive and win the fight. Although we will be very careful with our friends and fellow students in the class, this class will involve tactical exercises that may result in some hard knocks: be prepared! A stout gambeson, hard helm, and good gauntlets or similar are required. Steel or aluminum trainers are preferred to wood. We will do short rounds of sparring near the end of class, and discuss & analyze the nature of the fight. |
