One of the major mistakes newbies – during the fight they look at the sword of the enemy, trying to trace his movements. Don't do that, you still can not follow behind the blade, even if he is in inexperienced hands. Look in the chest opponent, so you will see all his movements. Not disclose during the fight: exposed arm or leg like a invite to hit on them. And remember that the best defense is a fast attack.
