Training 2009

July 2009 - Posts

  • 23rd July, nice 'n easy

    As with all middle of the season training we have the occasional simple session ending in a coffee or two at McDonalds or similar, this weeks training was one of those.

    We spent some time re-examining the principles of being thrown, how to throw safely andfall to the ground. After a short break we broke out the practice daggers, examined our dagger drills one and two in preparation for next week Fiore heavy training session in preparation for Lulworth and to help create a general inventory of techniques for those attending other shows later.

    The coffee turned out to be a bust as teh McDonalds across the road was having a refit, so we went back to a members house for coffee and biscuits intead!

  • 16th July, Gladiators!

    Training had a few people missing this week as they took part in the RSC (Random Salad Company) production of Fifth Elephant in the New Theatre Royal in Portsmouth. Those that attended are going to be partnering one another at Chedworth Roman Villa as gladiators, so time was spent on a quick warm and and then concentraing on putting together and recording their gladiatorial fights. All of which came on leaps and bounds and looked excellent.
