I was late for practice again. Alison came to practice. Tina was not in a happy mood. Victor brought volley ball. It seems that Stacy plays volleyball a lot. I owe John 11.50 for the horror movie night.
Footwork, lunge and recover, hold the front foot in the air and lounge again. The front foot should be heel down, toes up, and ready for another lunge, as well as en guard.
We practiced parry today. I used a heavy epee, my fingers were sore after several rounds of practices. Kelly told me to choose epee by finding the balance point. I should be able to move the sword with only my thumb and index.
When we do parry 4, if we miss the blade, we can do a circular parry 4 and try to grab the blade again. This Tuesday we practiced circle 6, that is when someone lunge at me, I start from position 6, do a clockwise circle, grab the blade, back to position 6, and riposet.
