COMBAT AGAINST MULTIPLE OPPONENTS

Here's some more info on my newest book, which happens to be on one of my most beloved topics: 

Combat in Outnumbered Scenarios: The origin of Historical Fencing.
... 
In this book I cover the fundamentals of combat against multiple opponents both with long double hand weapons (staff) and short single hand weapons (baton).

The main topics are:

- Combat strategy against multiple opponents,
- Principles of engagement,
- Principles and usefulness of active and reactive behavior,
- Technique for distance optimization,
- In motion sweeping parrying technique,
- Scenarios specific of baton due to its shorter length and single hand manipulation,
- Tactical decision making during combat.

The book has one additional chapter in which I cover the historical evolution of combat technique, more specifically parrying technique, presenting why and for what purpose different parrying techniques were created over time, hoping that these contents contribute not only for a better understanding of Martial Art's history but also improve combat strategy.

The book costs 19,95 dollars and is available at www.pretomartialarts.com, as well as on www.amazon.com

More information can be found on www.pretomartialarts.com and http://bf3c2baf.linkbucks.com

Although the Portuguese version of my website is still under construction, all my books are available in both languages.
