This inclass discussion from earlier this year is a fairly long and rambling discussion in which we broke out the trusty whiteboard markers to discuss some fencing theory relating to Meyer and Liechtenauer, but relevant to all fencing really.

As our club isn't in training, I'm hoping that at least some of you will revisit the video because we haven't been able to revisit it in person.

In essence, if we can reduce the exemplars in the text to general principles we find there's a lot less to think about while fencing.

It's important to remember that these are generalisations some of the genaral "rules" cited should never ben considered "laws" you can break the rules all the time while fencing as long as you know why!
