- We often call it Angelo solo drill because (if mind serves me correctly) it appears firstly on Angelo's highland/broadsword exercise ( the 10 broadsword division poster from 1799), which is then later introduced into Roworth's the Art of Defence following Taylor's ten lessons (which in themselves are an adaptation with thrust work based on the same 10 divisions "poster" from Angelo.
This is also a nice warm up exercise we implement in class as we find it often helps newcomers and seniors alike remember some basics and help them get into the "rhythm" of the system.
This is real life. Normal class, normal students, just the way it is. That's what they came to learn. Personally, I found it very interesting to watch. Thank you very much for this video. Please continue, your videos are very interesting. You explain and show everything very well.
Thanks, I have a planned release schedule of a video every Monday until middle of September, should be plenty of content to keep you all happy haha. The video series will then go for a pause until I can get back to filming more sabre content but I might go back and resume Capo Ferro's plates before that.
Great instruction
Thank you! :)
Super!
Glad you like it!
Drastically wish I had a HEMA club near me that fit my night shift schedule :c I fear training alone is only going to lead to sloppy habits from my self interpretations
When I started I trained solo for such a long long time, practicing against a target or just doing lot's of exercises, most of these I still keep today and I just add more on top of them depending if it's sabre or smallsword.
And if anything you can always come back to these videos, and even so, feel free to ask, I'll always reply, I'll always try my best to take a look at videos and comment if requested, and I may even do a video just to address some concerns you may have if a comment isn't enough.
Whatever the case though, don't let anything stop you! :) - Rui
when guessing it helps when your not waiting for someone else to engage the answer also these guys need to start with the basics again they forgot everything and it showed from the delayed answers.
There are several things here. For starters none of us are english natives so some reply in portuguese, some are very camera shy as this was this video was actually one of the first ones to be filmed. I always throw them curve balls and things they don't expect while also getting some banter going on. Doesn't necessarily mean they didn't know the exercise, just didn't remember the names or were just too afraid to answer and get it wrong. Once the exercise started rolling they instinctively remembered things without me having to correct them, just give the commands and instruct the newcomers.
Show the drill in real time, no talk, then do the break down, I got lost with the extensive and overly long explanations of each position.
