Here are Jake Norwood and Aaron Pynenberg of ARMA sparring each other, partaking of freeplay with longsword wasters:
http://www.thearma.org/Videos/JNvAP_nylon_Longswords1.MOV

(Note: It is probably better to download it first and then play it.)

That should prove edifying to any and all who view it.

There are other fine videos, both old and new, to be found there.

Edifying? Your joking right? It was nice to see at least two or three moves known well by the students.

No, I was not joking. Folks are curious as to what we in ARMA do, and that video gives some decent idea of part of the training. It is dynamic as anyone may plainly see.

Do you have any footage of yourself sparring that you have dared put onto the InterWeb, so that you could instruct us all by example as to how it be done properly?

I guess that is too much to ask of someone who does not use his real name at a forum.

And I daresay that you could not stand against the fellows in that video.

Well I posted here before going to SFI to read the absolute beating your cross post took there. I would expect to see more than a few moves used in a sparring, if you wish to be known as a threat that is.

Geez Jeff, yet again you post the same "advert" on a different forum and yet again get a negative response. Might I suggest that you change tact a bit.
