The core of our approach to training the positions and movements of historical swordsmanship is a systematic study of body mechanics. The principles are: relaxation, grounding and power generation. Ideally every position and action will be studied systematically, changing only one variable at a time, to find the best possible way for your own specific body to be and to move.
