The fight starts before the armor, before you pick up your stick, and before you step onto the field. It begins with an individual that is devoted to himself and understands the gravity of taking up arms against his fellow man.

This month our fighting workshop guest was Duke Radnor from the West Kingdom.   He taught a sword/shield tourney centric class with focus on flow, form, and addressing the threat of your opponent.  The session was video taped and can be found here on youtube.  There are 10 videos in this sequence:

A new training exercise was recommended,  the Centurion Challenge.   Everyday for 100 days you throw 100 shots.  If you miss a day the sequence starts over again from day 1.  This promotes muscle memory, good form, and adds to training time overall during the year, which leads to better performance on the field.  Day one of this exercise complete!
