Rapier

Rapier combat in the Society attempts to recreate styles of swordfighting from the later part of the Middle Ages, often based on manual and theories of combat that have survived to this day. Rapier combat uses a foundation of style and finesse that has since evolved into the modern sport of fencing. Unlike the modern sport, our combat uses a wide variety of weapons and body protection and our combat takes place with freedom of movement in any direction. Rapier combat can be found in both tournaments of individual and team combatants and in larger melees and wars! [Excerpted from the Society page on Rapier Combat.]

For more information please contact the Baronial Knight Marshal, Jacques Gonse [knightmarshal AT pontealto.atlantia.sca.org]
