For centuries, unarmored combat with the sword and a small shield, or buckler, was one of the most wide spread martial arts of medieval and Renaissance Europe.
Based on surviving medieval combat treatises and years of martial arts practice, Roland Warzecha and Tobias Wenzel offer an introduction to this fascinating fighting art. Viewers are guided step by step through the fundamentals of body mechanics, tactics and fencing theory. The underlying concepts of historical technique are demonstrated and explained in detail.
