If you want to know the true secret to becoming a great swordsman it is simple, practice. A true master of any art dedicates some of his or her time to practice on a regular basis. It is also good to gain instruction from others that are better than your self. Ask for advice, ask them to point out weaknesses that they see in your technique, and try to pick up tips and tricks that work well for them.
When most people first begin this sport they rely on speed and ferocity to win them battles. This works against many opponents. However, it does not replace good strategy, foot work and technique. Especially as a swordsman grows older. A warriors reflexes slow, his stamina lessens and his ferocity becomes displaced by wisdom. This warrior learns that he must cultivate precision, patience, and strategy to win the day. He learns to conserve his energies for the proper moment when he can deliver the proper strike. That makes this kind of warrior much more dangerous than the warrior who charges in wildly swinging his weapon around.
