cyranoVR's Journal: Fencing Stuff

Well, I was able to focus on keeping good form and footwork tonight, but as a result I got hit by a lot of simple attacks because I wasn't paying attention. Also, I missed a few attacks because I was thinking more about form and not getting close enough (stealing distance). I had a few suprise fleches that I was proud of though.

I will have to work on keeping good form in the back of my mind and focusing on keeping distance and setting up actions (relative to my opponent).

I also noticed that I should be more lively in my footwork. Sometimes when I am "idling" I am too stiff and stacato in my advances and retreats. I should move a bit more, like the canadians do...back and forth, trying to draw my opponent towards me instead of attempting to "run them down." But being looser and more composed in general as the main goal.

Well, time to turn in. Tomorrow there is a competition!

Less talking. More protecting the foot!
