Should Boxers Spar MORE?
Some people suggest that boxers would spar more, like most fencers, if they didn’t have to worry about concussions.
Yes, they probably would- but SHOULD they?
The fear of pain can be a helpful training tool, one which fencers lack.

Welcome to the Swordmastery Channel!
I am Maître Linda Wyatt
My Fencing Master, Maître Adam Adrian Crown, has 40+ years’ experience as a Fencing Master, and is also a 5th Degree Black Belt (Godan) in Chinese Goju Karate.
This channel shares our dedication to fencing as a martial art, or, if you will, martial arts, from the viewpoint of the sword.
The videos cover everything from specific technique, to philosophical discussions, to our teaching methods, and much of it applies to far more than fencing.
Some of it is common knowledge, and some of it is not.
If you’re interested in what a pair of classically trained Fencing Masters have to share about fencing, the sword, training, martial arts, combat theory, teaching, or simply how they view the world, this is the place for you.
