Episode 16 - Meyer's Square For Beginners - HEMA Instruction Video

[@WildBlueYonderDay]

Finally, something I can learn from. The other folk go too fast to follow. Thank you for this.

Thanks, I'm glad this was helpful! The square is a great tool for beginners to learn basic cuts and follow up cuts but it can certainly be confusing at first. There are other ways to do it as well, such as full cuts, half cuts, or adding the false edge, so its useful over time still even after graduating beyond 'beginner.'

Thanks for the detailed explanation. The slow and easy to follow examples made it easy to pick up.

[@McCameyHEMA]

I'm glad you found this helpful! Id practice it using full cuts and half cuts.

Great video, thx for the clear, detailed and followable steps. I like your very relaxed and easy posture, being a one time martial arts practitioner, I appreciate posture, structure and ability to transition.

thanks so much,do you think this drill would be helpfull in katana practice?

[@McCameyHEMA]

Absolutely! Meters Square can be done to train a single or double edged weapon.
It may conflict with Kendo in regards to the footwork however the fundamentals regarding cutting, changing direction, chaining attacks into a combo would all still be helpful.
