Great fun with Greatswords: a workshop on the basics of fighting with two-handed swords

Events are starting up again and I'll be at Winterkamp this weekend. I'll be teaching an introductory workshop on several greatsword sources. Since paper hand-outs are nice, but usually are forgotten in fencing bags, I figured it would be fun to do a video hand-out of the workshop. This video contains all the material I prepared for the workshop with some general notes on the techniques and pieces that I selected.
