Longsword Concepts: Dictating the Fight
INSTRUCTOR: Steaphen Fick ROOM: Baldwin/Perry
DESCRIPTION: This class is about determining who controls the fight. A fight should not be subject to luck. A person who understands body mechanics will be able to dictate the fight. The student who understands footwork, balance, guards and positioning will not only control his own distance and movement but will also be able to control his adversary's movement. After this class, the student will be better able to understand his adversary’s positions and thereby control him. Required equipment: Aluminum, Steel or Wooden Longsword and mask. Recommended: Attendance in the Controlling the Center Line open class.
