| The aim of this drill is to simulate a sparring bout while limiting the choices that the fencers may make. This allows the fencers to develop an understanding of the triggers for action and develop muscle memory responses to specific cues. | The aim of this drill is to simulate a sparring bout while limiting the choices that the fencers may make.

They continue fencing and swap automictically. For example, Fencer A makes an attack which Fencer B parries. Fencer B now makes an attack, as part of the parry-riposte dynamic, which Fencer A parries. The cycle continues. The constraint(s) imposed on each fencer limits the styles or forms of attack and defense which may be used. Last night (2024-04-29), |
