Note: we a very small Wing Chun collective here in Bedfordshire UK, that has developed a liking for Swordcraft HEMA style... But we want to use the HEMA template & develop Chinese Swordcraft to safe sparring spec... As a result I set up a separate close door club, Bedfordshire Sword Association (see FB) to develop Historical Chinese Martial Art (HCMA) as of 04/17...so that me & handful of experienced Wing Chun students can work on Chinese Swordcraft treatise...& bring back these lost skills... Also we have been working with established Chinese Sword smiths in the Far East, to develop Chinese Jian’s & Dao’s...we only received the Miao Dao in vid as of mid 08/17...so been using training with them only for a 2 & 1/2 months now, so what you see is a work in progress...rather than any polished article... We do not profess to be any experts...rather we are enthusiasts who wish to eventually develop Chinese Swordcraft to HEMA sparring spec...
