JASON SHERIDAN: On behalf of Expert Village, this is Jason Sheridan of Sheridan Fencing Academy here in New York City. Today, we're going to talk about advanced sabre fencing. Now, we're going to combine the same ideas of controlling distance with the feint and with making direct attack as well. So, watch carefully. The girls will be maneuvering. One of them is looking to attack either directly or with feint, and the other's looking to make parry-riposte. They're both actually looking to score and using the same concepts of controlling the distance we were talking about earlier. In this case, the parry-riposte was correct. Just go to head, girls, just go to head, where feint [INDISCERNIBLE]. This time the feint was correct. This time, Emma attack and don't always look to be in the same place while you're making your attack. Use different parts of your strip. One more time. This time, the feint was excellent.
