A Brief Introduction To Fencing

I produced in 2013 a series of videos as an Introduction to Fencing. I worked with the great fencing coach Priscille Lepoutge and we were assisted by Dana Denis-Smith as the student. These eight videos are a good introduction to what you will learn on a beginners course as these cover the on-guard position, how to move, how to hold the weapon, simple attacks and defensive actions. Although the demonstrations are with the Epee, these same principles hold true for Foil and Sabre fencing.
