Classical fencing - ultimate unarmed vs sword defence

Sensei Jacek, 13th Dan in classical fencing concentrates his Chi and flawlessly disarms his opponent.
The opponent is not immediately ripped to pieces because Sensei Jacek holds back. After all the opponent pays his monthly fee.

I was going to complain about how much this sucked before I read the satire part.

But you definately can disarm a person. If its a point weapon, all you have to do is get inside, and as long as you have been trained properly, the person is better off disarming themself than holding onto their sword.

@sterlingsilverf Yup, that was the intention of the vid ;) Sure, it is possible to disarm even an edged weapon. I just think that so much depends on chance, timing and so on that it's not justified to focus on teaching "disarming" techniques like in some martial arts

That was a pooooorly executed grapple. I wouldve dropped my sword and whipped out my dagger in that time, opened a few slots around your midsection.

[jbujko]

@omarfarid Certainly You would ;)

That's exactly why I put this vid here ;) I thought that it's clear that it is satirical, though.. :]

Haha, that's ok then; it's just worrying how many bullshit artists there are out there on the webzor.

[jbujko]

Oh come on.. This vid is just a joke :)

"13th Dan in classical fencing"?

Funny, I always thought fencing was a European activity, and Dan was a Japanese system of ranking.

try having your arms down by your sides to protect your vitals

also try veriations of the gathering step

also try doing very slow non structured work to learn all of the bodies subtle cues and the geomatry of attack

as for the face thrust maybe try blocking with the elbow like in Russian systema or 52 blocks

Iam just offering thoughts and ideas
