admin January 17, 2010 Lessons 0
I did a group lesson today at practice, which I just wrote about.  However, I also had a couple of things that I wanted to work on with Dori, so throughout the lesson I added some extra things that I wanted her to do.  Specifically, I wanted to focus on feints, and renewed attacks.  I also wanted to experiment a little with distance by using a gaining step.  Here’s what we did:
  1. From the instructor’s invitation in 3rd, straight thrust
  2. In time, as the instructor invites in 3rd, straight thrust
  3. In time as the instructor attempts to engage in 3rd, disengagement
  4. In time, glide in 3rd
  5. From the student’s engagement in 3rd, simple parry of 4th, riposte with a glide (no lunge)
  6. From the student’s engagement in 3rd, simple parry of 4th, riposte by glide with a lunge
  7. From the student’s engagement in 3rd, simple parry of 4th with a gaining step, riposte by glide with a lunge
  8. From the student’s engagement in 3rd, time thrust in 4th
  9. From the student’s engagement in 3rd, arrest in 4th (with a lunge)
  10. In time as the instructor attempts to engage in 3rd, feint by disengagement and disengagement.
  11. In time as the instructor attempts to engage in 3rd, feint by disengagement and disengagement with an advance.
  12. In time as the instructor attempts to engage in 3rd, feint by disengagement and disengagement with an advance.  After the instructor pulls distance a few times and makes the initial attack fall short, student uses a gaining step to cover the extra distance.
  13. In time as the instructor attempts to engage in 3rd, feint by disengagement and disengagement with an advance.  Instructor parries and retreats.  Student recovers forward with a feint by disengagement and disengagement.
  14. In time as the instructor attempts to engage in 3rd, double feint by disengagement and disengagement.
  15. In time as the instructor attempts to engage in 3rd,double feint by disengagement and disengagement with a coordinated step.
  16. In time as the instructor attempts to engage in 3rd,double feint by disengagement and disengagement with a coordinated step.  Instructor parries and retreats, student recovers forward with a feint by disengagement and disengagement
  17. In time as the instructor attempts to engage in 3rd,double feint by disengagement and disengagement with a coordinated step.  Instructor parries, retreats and places blade in line, student recovers forward, executes a blade seizure in 3rd and glides.
  18. In time as the instructor attempts to engage in 3rd,double feint by disengagement and disengagement with a coordinated step.  Instructor parries, retreats and places blade in line, student recovers forward, executes a blade seizure in 3rd and glides.  Instructor retreats to make the glide fall short and then steps back in with an attack to the low line.  Student responds with a time thrust in 2nd.
  19. In time as the instructor attempts to engage in 3rd,double feint by disengagement and disengagement with a coordinated step.  Instructor parries, retreats and places blade in line, student recovers forward, executes a blade seizure in 3rd and glides.  Instructor retreats to make the glide fall short and then steps back in with an attack to the high line.  Student responds with a time thrust in 1st.
  20. In time as the instructor attempts to engage in 3rd,double feint by disengagement and disengagement with a coordinated step.  Instructor parries, retreats and places blade in line, student recovers forward, executes a blade seizure in 3rd and glides.  Instructor retreats to make the glide fall short and then steps back in with an attack to the high line.  Student responds with a passata sotto.
  21. In time as the instructor attempts to engage in 3rd,double feint by disengagement and disengagement with a coordinated step.  Instructor parries, retreats and places blade in line, student recovers forward, executes a blade seizure in 3rd and does a feint by glide.  As the instructor attempts to time thrust in 4th, student executes a disengagement and fleches to the low line.
  22. From the instructor’s invitation in 3rd, three straight thrusts end of lesson.
