 +====== Compound Ripostes ======
 +
 +This is a CLA-style exploratory session designed to investigate and develop skills around compund attacks, as well as developing a sparring flow (as opposed to static drilling of isolated techniques).
 +
 +It may take some time to a) get comfortable flowing from one action to another, and b) notice patterns in the defender to exploit.
 +
 +**Objectives**:
 +  - Drawing the opponent into a parry position after their attack has been parried,
 +  - Seeing and taking advantage of openings created by them in doing this.
 +
 +**Observations**:
 +  * Changing the height of the strikes (ie: feint low to strike high, and vice versa),
 +  * Changing the line of the strikes (ie: feint on the inside to strike on the outside, etc),
 +  * Changing the angle of the strikes (ie: feint a vertical strike to make an horizontal strike, etc)
 +
 +**Source Text Notes**: The source texts agree that the first one or two actions of a compound attack are feints. They define a feint as a simulated attack in which the arm is developed but no lunge is made. Im not entirely sure how this relates to a riposte, since the opponent is by definition already within measure. However, all texts agree that the compound riposte is the key to good sabre fencing.

 +FIXME See the [[lef_confounfing_compounds|Confounding Compounds Exercise]] for our new thinking on how to approach conpound actions.
