Guards Progression
From Scholar Victoria
A simple sequence which demonstrates all of the guards in Meyer's system. This is not a canonical set of motions, but instead is inspired by contemporary sources like Marozzo.
You can see the sequence here:
The written description is:
| Guard Position | Forward Foot | Transition to Next Step |
|---|---|---|
| Zornhut | Left | Zornhau + pass forward |
| Wechsel | Right | Sturzhau (no step) |
| Ochs | Right | Unterhau + pass forward |
| Einhorn | Left | Falling false edge cut + pass forward |
| Vom-Tag | Right | Oberhau + pass forward |
| Alber | Left | Slash up + pass forward |
| Langort | Right | Pass forward |
| Eisenport | Left | Passforward |
| Kron | Right | Wrench left + schnappen |
| Pflug | Right | No step, parry with wind |
| Hangetort | Right | Zornhau + pass forward |
| Nebenhut | Left | Krumphau + pass forward |
| Schranckhut | Right | Pass forward, keep tip on the ground |
| Schranckhut (Meyer's) | Left | False edge slash up to long point, then withdraw the point |
