Here is a link to a video of the material we covered at practice this past Saturday.

"Four Principles of that True Fight at All Manner of Weapons"

Judgment - through Judgment, you keep your Distance.

Distance - through Distance you take your Time.

Time - through Time you safely win or gain the Place of your adversary.

Place - the Place being won or gained you have time safely either to strike, thrust, ward, close, grip, slip or go back.

A short demonstration of the principles of distance and timing drawn from George Silver's teachings.
