This camp also remains the best opportunity for experienced rapier fencers to hone their skills and improve their understanding of the concepts, techniques, tactics and theory of either the Italian or Spanish systems of 17th century rapier fencing. Any experienced student or instructor of rapier fencing cannot afford to miss this week of intensive training.
