About

This discipline involves the study and practice of Joachim Meyer's longsword, specifically the section from his 1570 manuscript as translated in The Art of Combat by Jeffrey L. Forgeng.

What to Expect

At the beginning, we teach the principle stance, four guards, and basic cutting mechanics, before going on to develop those skills into more advanced guards, cuts, and "devices".
