Friday, November 1, 2024
3:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.
Instructor: Silvia Tomassetti
Rapier close play in XVIIth Century incorporates traditional cut & thrust, a wide number of levers, locks, disarms, immobilizations, throws, takedowns, striking, pull & push, pommel strikes... And a lot of creativity!
But can the close play be somehow related to social and historical reasons in the State of the Church? And how all of the above can be tied to tactics and original manuscripts/techniques?
