Tonight saw our Swindon Chapter meet up for their regular weekly training session. After a summer of 2 sword (and Wushu warmups), our training block comes to an end with some of Godhinos craziest plays. We were jumping, swirling a twisting, trying to recreate some of these insane moves from guarding an individual to fighting at a crossroads, to retreating. A lot of laughs but also some great analysis.

It was our regular Wednesday night training session in Swindon today.  We continued our look at Docciolini’s two swords.  Today we looked at counters whilst also trying to up the defense to a single tempo.  With so much steel in the way, it’s tough on both the body and mind.  Great levels of analysis by all students.
