Training tonight saw Peter, Gabe, Warwick, Jon, Talisien (Eponeah and Mr Fox), Blake, Annie and myself. We all arrived at the showground to discover that the main hall was unavailable to us due to the show being set up. So the smaller pavilion was kindly opened up for us to use. Training began with all stretching and warming up then a few laps of marching practice. We practiced some striking, pulling blows and blocking then Warwick, Blake and Gabe did some singles combat, while Annie and I kitted up for Talisien to take some photos for the NEMAS website (http://www.nemas.org.au). These photos will be used in conjunction with the new NEMAS combat standards to portray correct techniques and a few for our own amusement.
