Training continued after the usual warm up including some stretching and guard/dagger drills for movement straight into fight rehearsals.
After figuring out who would fight who sequences were quickly figured out to enabled their tightening next week after being filmed by Steve who kindly brought along his digital camera to record the sequences. The use of the various drills soon becomming evident and very useful in the sequence's creation as they added a historical feel to the usual stage combat.
Some inventive use from Ben and Sam using gauntlets in place of shields as the shields where *ahem* elsewhere allowed for a nice sequence to be mapped out. It was doubly refreshing for older members of the group as they brought with them their own previous experiences making for a very different looking fight to standard fair, but all within the safety codes of the groups stage combat.
A fight was blocked out for the ladies to use in their 'Hollywood' sequence with kind help from Alisa and Pete who stepped in last minute (thanks for being a lady for an evening Pete).
All the while Big and Lil' Steve went through more weapons drills in preparation for Steve's public debut.
