4.) No student should be doing 'open ended' drills until they have mastered the basic footwork and cuts.
5.) The point/edge of the sabre is late ever cut. The foot either lands way before or the student doesn't fully extend to make it possible to hit out of distance.
6.) I give up... I've been looking online for months to find basic 101 sabre lessons online. There are none!!! So I will start posting basic stuff. Like head cut!
I have seen this lesson somewhere in NYC... What club do you think? (Please do not copy any of this if you are serious about sabre fencing. Check Ed Korfanty (USA Woman's National Coach) for 'real' sabre fencing.
Issues:
1.) Transverse chest cut lacks full extension.
2.) All cuts pull back automatically. This is deadly in modern sabre.
3.) Footwork is a bad copy of 1980's Russian footwork. Center of gravity moves forward and backwards all the time.
