Making Cuts in Intermediate Sabre Fencing

JASON SHERIDAN: On behalf of Expert Village, my name is Jason Sheridan from the Sheridan Fencing Academy here in New York City, and today, we're going to demonstrate some intermediate sabre fencing. What we need to begin with, of course, is learning how to make cuts. Girls, come forward, please. Even closer so you're going to extend your length. Very important that we can make cuts using our fingers. The primary area of target is going to be the head. So, watch as they turn guard toward the target area and they cut to the opponent's head. Go ahead, Emma. Using their fingers to make a cut, again, bah! Go ahead, Rach. They can also cut into the arm and to the chest. EMMA: Parry? JASON SHERIDAN: Go ahead, and chest. And with different rhythms, they can make these cuts in practice with one another. Go ahead, girls, take turns. What's very important here is that they stay very relaxed in the arm. There's no tension. It's not strained. It's easy. It's effortless. It's calm.
