Download or read book Modern Sabre Fencing written by Zbigniew Borysiuk and published by Ska Swordplay Books. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book teaches the NEW saber! It has been more than 75 years since an English-language book devoted to saber last appeared. Those were the days of men-only, visually judged saber, and the US didn't stand a chance. Since then, saber has been revolutionized. At the 2008 Beijing Olympics: the U.S. women swept the individual saber medals and took bronze as a team; the U.S. men took team silver. The fencing was not just electronically scored the referees watched the slow-motion video replay to decide close calls. The world of saber has changed, and it needs this book! Modern Saber Fencing is the first book to explain and teach the new saber from the ground up. It illustrates the new techniques with over 75 photo illustrations. It shows the technical and tactical adjustments that transformed classical saber. It explains how to train for the new saber. PLUS it presents the scientific research that underlies the latest training methods.

Download or read book Make the Cut written by John Chow and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-26 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sabre fencing is one of the oldest extant sports, a direct descendent of European sword combat, and a part of the modern Olympic Games since their inception in 1896. The sport has changed dramatically over the centuries, as the sabre and its fencers have evolved to adapt to new situations, tactics, and strategies. But its core, sabre fencing remains the same: a simulation of lethal combat at close quarters.This book is about the principles of how to fence sabre in 2020. It is about how fencers think and fight, how their coaches teach them to do this, and how the modern sport and its rules have come to be the way they are. I write about the myths that continue to shape those who fence and teach sabre, often to their personal detriment. Against this background, I describe the biomechanics and tricks that enable fencers to move and react almost superhumanly fast.Most of all, this book is a story about a venerable game of swords that masquerades as a sport, but used to be combat skill, and now acts as a martial art. Around this main story are the stories of those who have dedicated the better part of their lives to this pursuit, and who were kind enough to teach its secrets to me: a man who took up the sabre as an adult, fenced for his country, and ultimately started a club dedicated to teaching people of any age or fitness to fence sabre well.

Book Synopsis Sabre Fencing by : Russ Mitchell (Ed )
Download or read book Sabre Fencing written by Russ Mitchell (Ed ) and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where did Italo-Hungarian sabre fencing come from? It's not JUST Barbasetti...The Hungarians dominated Olympic sabre fencing for the majority of the 20th century. It is well-known that Radaelli's northern-Italian lineage became dominant in Austro-Hungarian fencing, under the immensely skilled tutelage of Barbasetti (and later, the Santellis). But little has been said about the Hungarian fencing-masters themselves and how they adapted the Radaellian sabre lineage to fit their own ideas. For the first time, the sabre fencing manual of Károly Leszák, primary sabre instructor at the prestigious Ludovica Military Academy, is made available in English. A must-read for historical fencers wishing to understand the evolution of Italo-Hungarian fencing, and for modern Olympic fencers curious where their methods come from.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a heavily-illustrated, step-by-step guide for how to fence -- and how to teach! -- Hungarian sabre fencing, as well as how to use the "fokos," or long-handled axe traditional to Hungary and East-Central Europe. It covers everything from basic stance work and tactics to complete synoptic tables and how to troubleshoot students who are having difficulty with the material. The manual also provides translated comparative material in order to demonstrate how the lineage the author learned is -- and is not -- like other methods of fencing taught in Hungary and at the Wiener-Neustadt cadet school in the mid-to-late 19th century up through World War One.
