Akademia Szermierzy - Training at home #10 Weapon control [ENG SUBTITLES] 

I spent a few minutes pretending like I wasn't exhausted. Then I caved in and turned on the fan...

If you are able not to destroy furniture during that training - that mean you don't have to improve your weapon control anymore...

A well balanced longsword is designed to keep the tip staying still. It's really cool, just google "Longsword pivot point"

Magia kina :v

Yes. We have several videos with Home Saber Exercises. Moreover our Tactical&Technical series consists exercises for saber in pairs. We will develop series about Polish Saber soon.

Probably HEMA tournaments. Even if you carry a sword for self defense in modern times, what are the odds you'd have to defend yourself from a similarly armed and trained assailant? Historically the reason to master these high level techniques would be duels and tournaments. The longsword was carried for self defense and for backup in battle, but in those situations the strategy is a little different.

Aureus Swords

This is a HEMA video.

@@mattmiraglia1835 HEMA is only for show?

@@johnbrown2163 more like competition. Bows aren't really part of historical fencing. Sword fighting since the late middle ages always had more of a dueling and tournament application than pure combat. Dont get me wrong, swords were definitely meant for self defense and battle, but they were secondary to spears, lances, and projectiles, on the battlefield (ironically, they became more primary as guns became prominent). For self defense, it was unlikely you'd apply high level techniques because your assailants wouldn't necessarily be similarly armed and trained as longswords were nowhere near tbe most common weapons in any era. Bows had a specific context and there arent any sources we know of about using bows in individual combat. I recommend following Schola Gladitoria and Metatron on RU-vid if you're interested. Skallagrim and Shadiversity are also really good but Shad.

@@mattmiraglia1835 Not a fan of Skallagrim, I will be honest I don't like HEMA, I watch these videos for training in WW3. When ammo runs out or you see that you cannot shoot in the night. You're very wise to Battle. I wonder how you and I would do to the Death?

@@johnbrown2163I think you would lose if it was longswords. Bows though? I dont know much about them.

Congrats:D

There is no czech, nor russian in this video tho

It's Polish, but sure, all slavic languages are similar :)
