  • Ethics in Fencing Through Communication and Calibration

    Ethics in Fencing Through Communication and Calibration
    Apr 19 2024

    In this episode we discuss safety through communication and what a physical and emotional safety-focused force calibration should look and feel like.


    John "Pax" Crum has been practicing martial arts for 35 years. His focus has ranged from competition to combatives and self-defense, and has settled on training and ethics. For 12 years, Pax has studied HEMA, specifically Liechtenauer's Zettel and the glosses. He plays with anything and everything in HEMA, and has been giving his talk, The Speaking Window, since 2018.
