I've been teaching fencing for a little while now, and also have tried to teach with creativity, this videos are amazing, thanks for the effort for doing this, is such as hilarious, as it's smart and creative, congrats for the excellent idea, edition and time for doing this. Great big hug from México. (sorry 4 my English it's a little bit broken).
Hey guys, special thanks to dancing tuna for his help in making this. Let us know what you think about this style of video. Also what would you prefer to see next time: How to counterattack 10 common mistakes and how to fix them
Oh you are too funny, while at the same time having such valuable info! So many fine-motor skills necessary for the Foil magic just dont come across on match replays, as a former Sabre fencer I can dance circles around many foilist footwork wise but hitting flat after so much work is infuriating. Going to be trying the wrist angles and extending a hair sooner to open up disengage opportunity, thanks. Other vid also de-mystified flicks, we'll see if I can pull it off in 6months. DBZ, Spongebob, Cowboy Bebop, I approve of your childhood 😆 hope to see you at a future NAC post-COVID!
Great video! Very interesting the part about holding the grip, can you explain a little more in detail how to hold your foil with the index finger on the side ? Is the finger completely on the side or is the tip of the index finger still slightly below? I would be interested to know because I see more and more fencers holding their weapon this way. Thank you!
We’d say French grips in general are slightly more difficult to use, however they are great for training fundamental technique. You can think of the pommel as “training wheels.” If it’s locked in to your wrist during your action, you’re probably doing great.
We offer private or small group e-lessons. The participant should have access to a target (just standing a bag vertically will do), or partner. We've even had a father - son duo learning together, from scratch, where both have a set of equipment and are able to do partner exercises together.
All this intercutting is annoying and serves no real purpose except to distract. I was interested in your video but it's badly edited. Use the animations sparingly and only when necessary. Stay on message.
This video made everything click for me, it's fantastic
You really touched my soul with the smash bros references, it all makes perfect sense now 😂

What else but jojo to grab my attention
are disengages harder on a french grip or is it just my lack of experience?

What format do the mentioned lessons take? And with whom are they?
