Major Joseph Feldmann designed a method with 10 Lessons with drills for the baton or staff. This should be used for the soldiers of the military in Austro-Hungary in the 19th cent. Nowadays the oldskool use of the baton gets an revival in Historical fencing and HEMA. We used old instructional manuals and books to follow the instructions to bring life to those movements again. The instructional book Feldmann wrote and the knowledge is taken from is: “Leitfaden zum Unterrichte im Stock-, Rapier-, Säbel- und Bajonnett- Fechten.“ You will find a scan for free at the University of Vienna :383010/methods/bdef:Book/view But if you need a English translation, use the one by Isobel Zijlstra, edited by Russ Mitchell. follow the link on Amazon: =sr_1_1?__mk_de_DE=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&crid=3DYLB07DRVCXG&dib=
