A small solo drill to work some basic mechanics in.

Also if you’re bored and want to exercise daggers can be great as they don’t take too much space and you can use a bunch of regular household items as solo drill simulators(and even rolled up newspapers can be used as ok sparring simulators if you happen to have a sparring buddy at home since we’re supposed to be self-isolating).

For those interested in dagger fighting generally check out this old posts as well as the dagger tab as well as these ones

“ Here i outline the reasons and arguments for why i move the way  I am doing with Meyers dagger. Hope this clears up some misunderstandings and hopefully it might help kill the myth about Meyer being solely for competition, which is a misconception that seems to refuses to die. “

“The Lansing Longsword Guild ran a dagger class in the fall of 2018, and recorded all of it. Posted here is a minimally edited recording of the first class, covering the basics of the postures and how to structure a committed attack.

Important to the class was the context of dagger attacks in Early Modern Germany, which our lead instructor, Adam Franti, explains in the video.

Future videos will cover each week's classes, each of which is devoted to exploring one or more of Meyer's dusack precepts, and how we can use the dagger section to more fully understand the rest of the system.

“The Dagger Derby pits one fencer at the center against random, aggressive attacks from those outside. The idea is to commit the attacker to make deep attacks that simulate the kinds of dagger assaults that the treatises teach how to defend against, and to match descriptions of dagger attacks in the Early Modern period.

In this variation, the fencer in the middle is unarmed, and must defend against an armed attacker. “
