Teaching set 1: Marozzo’s Primo Assalto Part 1

Tell them what your going show, show, have them do with
Explain what youre going to show them

Show them:
Stand 90deg perpendicular to partner so as to to demo (cf mirror image, actually confusing to follow) and ask them to first watch
1st demo, speak and do slow but no pause
2nd demo, speak and do slower with pauses
3rd demo, ask them to follow after
4th demo, say the moves but put gap and do slowly so as to follow together so that their recall is engaged not just passively follow what they see

?break up into subsequences when they are to follow along?

————
break, if q’s, fine then another break
————

Repeat demo perpend
Now demo opposite each other oom

Then have them stand im and do against them
Swap roles

Then add the patiente fendente
Swap roles

?Then patient active buckler static footwork static sword except fendente.
So as to see how agente moves are actually designed to provoke responses and open up guards to give openings for the next move
