Lesson 35
Lesson from practice today. This was the first time that I introduced actions with footwork (feint with an advance and blade seizure) to the student. I am also starting to introduce to him the idea that I might change the actions a couple of times and that he will have to adjust his own actions accordingly. For instance, I might add a parry at the end of his attack, forcing him to renew the attack or counter parry, disengage when he attempts to engage, etc…
