Zwerchhau, Basics and Counters: Longsword Lesson 9

The Zwerchhau is perhaps the most highly recommended technique in Liechtenauer’s art. We offer here our understanding of the master cut itself and some of the counters to it. It is beyond the scope of this video series to cover every nuance of the Zwerchhau. We will cover some other related material next week, so stay tuned. As always, we try to remain open-minded to other interpretations, and ask you to do the same. Thanks for watching!
