Скачать или смотреть The Quarterstaff: Lesson 1

Lesson 1 of our approach on the Quarterstaff based on and inspired mostly by Zachary Wylde (1711). We also use the little material provided by Donald McBane (1728) and Archibald MacGregor (1791). Especially for sparring, because we use lighter Rattan staffs for safety reasons, we will look a little into the victorian and edwardian combat sport of Quarterstaff according to Thomas McCarthy (18823) and R.G. Allanson-Winn (1905).

Basing on some interpretations of George Silver´s and Joseph Swetnam´s Quarterstaff material, we also adopt the fundamentals and techniques on the Lochaber-Axe and Galloglass Sparth-Axe as well as the Scottish Twohanded Sword according to the MacGregor Method.
