In this first episode I'll be explaining how and why I do research into the Historic European Martial Arts. And how that helps to further my physical understanding of the arts as a Martial artist and practitioner. I share tips and advice on the reasoning behind the research. Special emphasis is placed on the works of 16th century German fencing Master Joachim Meyer. In addition I explain the many other topics that I plan to cover in upcoming episodes. Tune in to find out what this is all about. Thanks for your time and interest.
