I've always thought a balance of physical combat skills and artes was the best way forward as well. We can run drills for both. Perhaps Rita would like to get involved. If you have your weapon, I have always wanted a closer look at how a polearm is used.
There's something to be said for covering as many bases as possible when it comes to given skillsets, isn't there? I take it you're more of a mixed practitioner yourself? It's rather rare to find swordsmen who actively set out expand their focus beyond combat artes! At least where I'm from, at any rate...
Regardless, you can most certainly have a closer look at polearm uses when the time arrives! So long as you don't get close enough to end up on the business end of the spear, naturally 😊

If I don't get close enough to the business end then what is the point of training? Training is fun, of course, but the point is to be very familiar with what to do in a deadly situation. I can take it.
