Johanna Hopfgartner: 18/19th century mounted sabre systems

Johanna Hopfgartner (23) is an Austrian HEMA practitioner whose main focus lies on German longsword, but who has also been known to pick up a sabre once in a while.

During the last 2 years she has been looking into various mounted fencing systems, and has picked up Horsy HEMA as her guilty pleasure. Those of you who have watched The Walking Dead know, that horses can come in handy in an apocalypse, which is why she’d like to introduce you to the very basics of mounted sabre practice.

In her workshop, we’ll go through the basic guards and cuts from 18/19th century mounted sabre systems. You’ll need a sabre simulator, which can also be a stick, a rolling pin, a flute, etc. You do not need a horse, though you’ll get extra points if you can provide one. (Hobby horses absolutely count)
