Fresno Freifechter: Historical European Martial Arts

To celebrate Christmas and Christmas eve, there will be no practice tomorrow, Dec 24. We will, however resume on Dec 31. In the meantime, enjoy our latest youtube video, and keep an eye out for more coming soon https://youtu.be/LN09G8Yn-SI

Fresno Freifechter members will be competing in the Kearney Park Renaissance Faire exhibition tournament. Come visit us there! Of course this means no regular class this weekend, will resume normal time on the 19th

New video on our YouTube channel, in our dussack playlist. This one's been stuck in the editing room for a while now. Be sure to subscribe! More in-depth videos coming soon! https://youtu.be/Ld5GTO3NOeY

Reminder: no practice tomorrow, 8/26. See you next week!

First in a series of videos demonstrating basic dussack techniques. First: the straight parrying (gerade versatzung). https://youtu.be/TS7Gm9JVja0

Dussack sparring from today's class, trying to practice to "only cut to the opening when [we] not only have it for certain, but have also taken heed whether [we] can also recover from the extension of the cut back into secure parrying..."

Just a little over a month away

Here's a great example of Absetzen. Note the footwork. Actually, note Robert's entire Meyer Rappier playlist. https://youtu.be/vwih6PmIFDs

This will be Sacramento's first tournament. I hope everyone is able to go!
