Modern Messer Manual Introduction
Hello everyone! It's been a while since I've done any dedicated messer content here, and that needs to change. I have very much been developing my ideas on what to teach and how to teach it, so The Modern Messer Manual is an attempt to capture the current state of my messer fencing in a video series. The first actual videos that will form some sort of beginner's guide to messer will be released vert soon, and this here is the introduction that will be kicking things off. In this primer, I'm mostly talking about the general outline of the project, but perhaps more interestingly, why I decided to step away from just following the structure of Lecküchner's fight book. :) If you'd be interested in supporting the channel or are looking for extra content in general, have a look at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/virtualfechts... The videos in this series will be released on Patreon much earlier, and will also be accompanied by further tutorials. I can definitely recommend checking it out! Music courtesy of epidemicsound.com
