Distance fighting

Emphasis at this level when using a weapon is on having a more flowing body movement with less effort. In developing reflexes or quick responses, to attacks and becoming aware of the movements of the opponent and to develop an intuitive understanding of his next attack

For long-range distances one handed or two handed grip style

When using one hand or two hands for fencing, timing, distance and footwork are very important

Weapon Fencing

Many sword techniques cannot be followed on from stick techniques as swords have a sharp edge to them and attempting to 'cross over' in technique from sticks will result in getting cut

However some sword techiques can be incorporated into stick techniques

Weapon skills are also depended upon the movement of the wrist

The nature of the weapon itself effects how the weapon is used, size, weight, pointed, edge, blunt. Everything comes into play, in as to how that weapon at hand is used
