Just starting to read Saber Exercises 1914 Training Manual in Swordsmanship by George S. Patton Jr. and so far I’m excited that it’s talking about saber training/fighting from horseback. Let me know if you want to start a discussion

I’m back to a very snowy beach trail to train! With Karate Nationals this summer my normal training has more of a Kobudo twist with some shield and sword thinly disguised as Rochin and Tinbe. I’m still shocked that I qualified for Karate Nationals (I did the qualifier tournament because it was raising money for a good cause and I could do weapons. They didn’t specify that I couldn’t do Kali instead of Kobudo as I have very minimal Karate training)

Can't wait to get back to beach training with the longer days ❤️⚔️
