- | Here are the training notes and other documents used to support the LongEdge Fencing training program. Notes for workshops will appear here as well.

- | ===== Seventeenth Century ===== | ||

- | ==== Foundations ==== | ||
- | |||
- | These are the basic movement blocks which make up the LongEdge Fencing interpretation of our source texts. The actions and movement mean very little on their own but provide the physical vocabulary and terminology reuqired for further learning. | ||

- | ==== Situations ==== | ||
- | |||
- | These documents describe a particular situation or set of circumstances found during a fencing bout and the preferred method of handling it according to the LongEdge Fencing interpretation of our source texts. Fencing techniques are combined in this section to solve a particular fencing problem and deal with an opponent. | ||

- | ==== Grab Bag ==== | ||
- | |||
- | These are extended movement patterns and techniques from which larger motions can be developed and can be used in fencing situations. Techniques represent single fencing actions useful in a wide range of circumstances. Again, they mean nothing by themselves as they are divorced from any context. | ||

- | **Rules**: Both fencers start out of measure and approach each other along the line of direction. When either figures that one or other of them can make the touch, they can pick one of the two actions below. After the exchange, the fencers reset. | ||
- | |||
- | * A direct or straight thrust in //tierce// or //quarte//, | ||
- | * A simple parry against this thrust in either //tierce// or //quarte//. | ||
- | |||
- | Success is defined for the attacking fencer by making a touch and for the parrying fencer as avoiding the touch. If both fencers attack, the fencer who was moving forward to touch succeeds as the stationary fencer is deemed to be only reacting rather than initiating an attack. Note that this is **not** sparring; it's a game with rules that relfect a teachable. | ||

- | **Skills Tested**: Distance/ | ||

- | **Variations/ | ||
- | |||
- | * **No retreat**: Designate one fencer as the attacker and one as the defender. The defender cannot step backwards, whether by a pass or a withdrawing step. Lateral movement is allowed. | ||
