How NOT to Cut With a Sword (Reviewing Years of Progress)
This is an analysis of the most common mistakes I made throughout 10 years of occasional cutting practice, which hopefully helps beginners and anyone else looking to improve their technique.
In the video I address various biomechanical issues, like poor footwork, twisted or otherwise misaligned posture, bad edge alignment, ineffective arm positioning, etc.

An excellent book on the topic is Mike Edelson's "Cutting with the Medieval Sword: Theory and Application"
