Wed 14th training update...

Rapier: no rapier tonight, back to normal next week.
Longsword: parries, lots of parries, keeping the point on against over and under hews. For those of you confused by this, it's simple:
The attacker will attack as often as possible maintaining a fluid approach but not worrying too much if they get hit.
The defender should try not to get hit, but not get frustrated if they do, merely improving the next attempt at defence, you will get hit as it's pretty impossible to just block, accept this, it is an exercise to help you improve a skill set, not free play).
