2019-06-16 23:40:32 UTC

2019-06-16 23:40:56 UTC  

you do sword sparring?

2019-06-16 23:41:04 UTC  

Yeah HEMA

2019-06-16 23:41:09 UTC  

yeeaa

2019-06-16 23:41:14 UTC  

whats it like

2019-06-16 23:42:57 UTC  

Well HEMA is full contact so we can grapple with the opponent, we use metal swords but they are not sharp, and we read from texts created during the renaissance as a base for it

2019-06-16 23:43:40 UTC  

interesting

2019-06-16 23:44:01 UTC  

you still wear body protection tho right

2019-06-16 23:45:02 UTC  

Oh yeah, not so much full plate armor as much as padded clothes, they are thick enough to avoid injury tho

2019-06-16 23:45:27 UTC  

what type of swords do you use

2019-06-16 23:46:54 UTC  

I do longword mostly, and that is the main thing taught in class, but we have used Spears, rapiers, and dusaq(a cutlass like blade), tho only occasionally

2019-06-16 23:47:29 UTC  

sounds very fun

2019-06-16 23:47:46 UTC  

Yeah, you can google them, their organization is pretty big

2019-06-16 23:48:24 UTC  

ill google them rn

2019-06-16 23:49:11 UTC  

If their acronym doesn’t work try googling, “historical European Martial Arts”

2019-06-16 23:50:03 UTC

2019-06-16 23:50:13 UTC

2019-06-16 23:51:00 UTC  

Yeah, as I said these are historical texts so they are done pretty much everywhere in some form

2019-06-16 23:53:02 UTC

2019-06-16 23:54:20 UTC  

Although, I am no expert on the material or association, so take my words with a grain of salt
