Black Swan: The Fracture

Welcome to the fourth class in the Black Swan series, "The Fracture". We start by building on the last class, positioning the right foot in front with the left foot underneath, holding the sword upward.

The class features key movements, including:

Three identical outward strikes with the palm facing the ceiling.
Bringing the back foot forward and lifting both hands to perform an outside flower and strike up.
Looking up over the start of an overhead flower while bringing the right leg over the left foot for a turn.
Performing another overhead flower.
Lifting up and opening the chest, then bringing the front foot over to slice and hold.
A turn with the sword at the heart.
Striking up from a hands-at-chest-level position, followed by three forward strikes.
Finishing with a half flower, bringing the sword behind the back.

This is a long and difficult one, so take a deep breath and let's begin.
