Taking rule one of Figueiredo and turning it to serve several ends.
Strikes from different heights, parries and flows to more formal positions.

When your sword is bigger than your car, you know you like HEMA.

Thank you for breaking this down, these drills are difficult to learn on ones own.

It reminds me of Paul Porter's greatsword drills from the Bellatrix School.

Just half-sword with it. Thrusts are harder to dodge, block, and parry.

I know I'm late, but what are your thoughts around the part of rule 1c that specifically say, after the first upward talho, to let the sword fall over the right arm for the altibaxo? It seems Figueiredo had a different motion in mind, but I want to hear your thoughts on this because you are coming from a place of more practice and experience.

Hi Mathew, I would love to see what you mean in a short clip if possible. I can't answer honestly without fully understanding your point visually.:)

@@LondonLongsword Just uploaded a quick video for you, which will be in the next comment. I'm curious to hear your thoughts regarding this action, and if you excluded it intentionally, or if you think it's even really necessary. Also, please note this is not an attack on you or your interpretation, either. I have nothing but respect for you and the content you put out. :)
