Happy Sunday! I have put up the first video of the provocation series for Coda Lunga Stretta. It is rather long (22 minutes), because there is a lot going on in each play. The next videos will be posted over the following week. As for the class schedule, I cannot guarantee that I will be available on weekdays throughout the entire month of March, so I propose running one (1) longer session on Saturday afternoon. How does 1:00 to 2:00/2:30 sound? The first such class would start on Saturday, March 6, and would run for four weeks. We would then resume our normal schedule in April. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYHLb4GXBCc

Good afternoon! The videos that I have been filming for the first cycle of this year’s classes are all ready! This is 18 videos of the defences with all three weapons for the six guards. It is almost two hours of material, so kick your feet up and make yourself comfortable! Please start here: https://m.youtube.com/watch

Hello, everyone! Sorry for being so quiet as of late, just filming some videos from the Bolognese class. Over 20 will be up over the coming week, so stay tuned! As for tonight’s class, because we are only doing the provocations from coda lunga alta, class will be short, ending around 7:30. Thursday’s class will run the normal length. See you then!

Hello, everyone! I hope you all enjoyed your holidays. I am still stuck in the weeds until this Thursday night, so our next class will be in the New Year. It has been a real pleasure working with you this year, and I have a lot of material planned for next year. See you all next week, in 2021!

Hi everyone, sorry for the late notice, but I am afraid there will be no class tonight. Still working. Happy Holidays, and see you all next Tuesday for a big review!

Here is the video from tonight's class, the variation of the attacks (two-person drill) using the sword and cloak. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wprxy0BhiIU&feature=youtu.be

The last two videos on the provocations are up! Next week, we will look at the variation of the attacks, the final piece of the puzzle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38AOufeXxLs&feature=youtu.be

Class is back on! We will review porta di ferro stretta tonight and look at the final guards, alicorno with the left and right foot. See you soon!

Hello everyone! I am afraid I won’t be able to run the usual Zoom lessons this week because of some pressing work commitments, but I will put up videos of what we would have covered (Alicorno provocations and counters) so you have something to chew on in the meantime. The Cinghiale videos are up, the Porta di Ferro one just needs to be uploaded. See you all next week!

Hello everyone! Just a quick reminder that there is no virtual class tonight. See you all next Tuesday!

Hello everyone. I am afraid i won’t be able to make tonight’s class. Look for the videos for tonight and Thursday shortly. See you all in two days!

Good evening! Here is the link to the review for yesterday's class: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9TE2uzBPn0&feature=youtu.be

As promised, here is the first video of the sword and cloak provocations, starting with Coda Lunga Stretta: https://youtu.be/g2Zn3K3vDlM

I have just posted all the videos for the sword and cloak defences. Please start here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKbIgW9xEXA&feature=youtu.be

Good morning! Today’s class will be at Britannia Beach Park, same location, from 2:00 to 4:00 pm. We will wrap up the outside crossings (mezza spada), and look at the sword and cloak defences from coda lunga stretta. See you there!

Quick note about tonight’s class: we are just looking at Cinghiale with the cloak, so it will be a bit shorter than usual. Next week we will review this guard and finish up with the two Alicorno guards.
