Making Your Opponent Dance with Offensive Provocations (Sidesword Scholar)

In this series we'll be using offensive provocations in gioco largo (and some in gioco stretto) to force the opponent into predictable defenses. You'll explore:

• Earnest attacks - How and when to make an attack that hits.
• Attacks to the sword hand - Using lower commitment attacks to create obedience.
• Feints - False attacks to draw the opponent out of position.
• Attacks to miss - Attacking off target to create chasing.

This is a fantastic course for both solo and partnered practice.
