This stage combat class will begin with simple unarmed combat then move on to swords and other weapons, learning the basic footwork, six basic parries and a range of blade attacks, disengages, coupes and avoids. This year we will also explore scene construction, integrating dialogue and character while increasing the complexity and duration of the fights themselves.
