HEMA Longsword Guards - Achille Marozzo (1536) |
|
|
Achille Marozzo, a 16th century italian fencing master, dedicated one of his five books on the Longsword (Spada da due Mane to be precise). It starts out with his three Assalti (solo-drills with some context - so you can practice with a partner). What follows is the description on guards and how to use them. Unfortunately he didn't describe & show us all the positions in detail. That, and the sheer number of them can be a bit overwhelming. So here is a short overview on all of his used guards with two perspectives - front & side.
If you are just starting out, I'd recommend you begin with his chapters on the guards & tactical advice and only after that learn his Assalti. ;) 00:05 Porta di ferro larga/alta/stretta 00:19 Guardia di fianche 00:25 Cinghiara porta di ferro larga/alta/stretta 00:40 Coda longa e distresa/larga/alta/stretta 01:05 Guardia de testa 01:10 Guardia de facia 01:15 Guardia de intrare (non) in largo passo 01:25 Guardia di croce 01:30 Guardia de becca cesa 01:35 Guardia de becca possa 01:40 Guardia de consentire 01:45 Guardia de spalla 01:55 Guardia alta 02:00 Guardia de gombito 02:05 Guardia de piede ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you would like to support us, visit our patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SchildwachePotsdam Follow us on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/schildwachepotsdam/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪ Music Provided: Mediacharger - https://www.youtube.com/user/MediaCharger Music Created By: Random Mind Song Title: The Old Tower Inn Credit link: https://goo.gl/cN3oi3 Creative Commons: Attribution Music Provided: Internet Archive - https://archive.org/ GOTHIC AND RENAISSANCE DANCES (1961) Music by:Klaus Walter, Michel Walter, Eleanor Slone, Gerald Sonneck, Ernst Koelz, Alfred Hertel Digital transfer By: F.
