Drilling Zornhau!
Zornhau - a diagonal cut to the head or neck. To do it, stand 30 degrees on to target, rest sword on back shoulder. Inhale. Exhale and throw the sword forward, steering with the back hand so that it cuts in a 45 degree plain. When the sword tells you to... wait for it... wait for it... STEP. Blade and foot land together...
...except the other fellow just threw a Zornhau into your blade...
Yes, we finally found the right balance between study and drill by alternating the weeks. That way, people who only attend on one of the two days don't get lost, and both study and drill blocks have continuity.
And, everything aches...
