Don’t leave your dagger behind
Juni 11 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
| €29About the workshop
How do we truly incorporate the dagger of rapier and dagger.
It goes beyond having a second weapon but to understand the partnership of double fence.
Not just parallel, replacement, beats, glissade, reinforcement, and Cross Parry, but double fence during binds, and grand envelopment with applications of distance, on and off line, and across the circle.
The symbiosis of rapier and dagger.
Please have some kind of Rapier and dagger representation at hand. This can be two sticks, two wooden spoons or something else. (Nothing sharp or otherwise dangerous please.)
