Fencing Club, 5pm Salle

As usual, Peter had gotten to the salle early to warm up a bit and start laying out the practice blades, pads, and towels. 

"Evening, everyone," he said with a nod as the group assembled in the salle.  "Hopefully you're all having good weeks and no one is too worried about their family or friends arriving later in the week."  He grinned the grin of someone who didn't know yet what doom lay upon him.  "Zuko agreed to demonstrate today with his dual swords."  Peter bowed slightly to him.  "If anyone else wants to demonstrate in future weeks, do let me know."

"After the demonstration, do pair up and spar or work on some moves.  If some of the more experienced people could help the newer swordspeople, that would be brilliant."

Alanna stretched, as per usual paying special attention to her right arm.

Setsuna goes through her warm up forms with dilligence and focus. She failed at meditating last night, so she was trying to make up for it here.

Peter warmed up some more, this time with the weight of his sword instead of just stretching.

Naomi warmed up, trying her best not to think about Parents Weekend.

Parker warmed up carefully, stretching her muscles and fingers to get maximum flexibility.

Joxer warmed up in his usual manner that was probably completely useless.

Cedric moved to stretch, first his arms, then his legs and then his torso.

Lavender touched her toes. She was sporting another extremely purple sweatsuit.

Zuko's Demonstration

Ping in for questions, etc after he tags.

Zuko stepped forward. He'd already retrieved his sword from the weapons locker. Right now, it looked like he just had one sword (http://www.avatarspirit.net/images/screenshots/207/011.jpg), but if you looked closer you would be able to see that it actually split up in two (http://www.avatarspirit.net/images/screenshots/207/012.jpg) parts.

"Theser are dual swords," he said as he pulled the swords out and seperated the pieces. "They are two different parts of the same whole. It is important to keep this in mind while fighting. Don't treat them as seperates."

He seemed to think this was enough of an explanation as then started his demonstration. The moves were fluid and he seemed to use his whole body as he went through the different stances, his swords reflecting the light as he brought down a target in his mind. Best not to ask which one.

After a while, he stopped and looked around. "Questions?"

Pair Up and Practice

[identity profile] once-a-king.livejournal.com 2006-10-17 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
By yourself, with a partner.

Setsuna could definately use a good spar today. She took a glance around to see who might be interested.

Pippi has her saber with her today.

Joxer was unfazed by his completely horrible record at sparring. He was swinging his sword around like he was a pro.

Honest. He didn't look like an idiot at all. Noooooo.

Okay, yeah. He looked pretty bad.

Parker went through the forms, and considered learning a two-sword style, after watching Zuko.

Cedric took his blade up and practiced a bit. He was getting better, that was for sure.

Talk to V

But he's lurky...

Lurky he is. Quiet, too.

Such a cheery guy, really.

OOC!

[identity profile] once-a-king.livejournal.com 2006-10-17 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
For now, it is the end.

There is no end, there is only the spoon.
