Dual wielding of two equal length swords is a challenging and rewarding discipline. In this series you’ll learn the fundamentals of how to manage two swords in attack and defense following the Duello Armizare method and its connection to the ancient Bolognese two-sword tradition.

Students will learn:

  • The four closed positions
  • The core thrusting and counter-thrusting patterns
  • The core cutting patterns (cambiamenti)
  • Attacking and supporting
  • Strategies for entering

The techniques in this series are based on the Sidesword Fundamentals series. It is recommended students take that series or have related knowledge of the fundamental guards, cuts, and thrusts of the single Italian sidesword.

Acknowledgement of Safety and Risk

  1. Practice all exercises slowly and with control.
  2. Practice using training swords that are not sharp and are specifically made for practice.
  3. Use protective gear for all exercises. In many of our videos we are not wearing head, throat or body protection in order to make clear explanation more possible. You should always use protective gear when practicing these arts regardless of the exercise.
  4. Be aware that injuries in training are always possible. Ensure that you are practicing with care and caution at all times.
  5. DuelloTV is not responsible for any injuries that occur as a result of sword practice inspired from our videos.
