EHMS Shark Tank EHMS Ry 2024-03-12 | 13.3.2024 Advanced course had Shark Tank excercise where one is repelling attacks from the sharks.The "Shark" gets changed, while the defender must continue fighting for their life for full 3 minutes straight. Each fencer is the defender in turn, and then becomes one of the sharks for the next defender's round in the tank.This is an exercise reserved only for the advanced group due to the tremendous physical drain and the skill required to fence safely despite it.Do you think you have what it takes to take on these sharks? Apply for the advanced group and show them what you are made of!http://ehms.fiVideo: Esa RÀisÀnen / Grimberg
