Even after 7 years of fencing I still become to upright when put under pressure aghh!!!
Zombie fencing also sounds hilarious. Maybe for Halloween :P
Thank you coach it is really important for beginners
some of the best videos on fencing, congrats!
I'm starting a new fencing club and never realized how hard it was going to be so all vids on beginner mistakes are greatly appreciated.
Absolutely excellent, again. Three points... (one might be a mistake for a future video).
1. Not sure about the lean forward on a lunge to extend an attack. It really slows the return to recovery position if it fails. If you cant reach, use your feet to step forward for remise , or reprise, or fleche! At least the fleche will take you off the piste and end the phrase relatively safely if you miss.
2. Vary your step length. Its a mistake not to. If you do anything twice in a row the odds of taking the the 3rd step with exact same length, at the exact same tempo are 95% and your opponent can predict where you are going to be and when. They can time their attack to when you are most vulnerable; in midstep. Vary the steps in length, timing and direction. Be erratic! Two short ones, one long one, two forward, one back, etc.. It is very difficult for humans to be erratic, we like our rhythms and routines. But if you can be more erratic and confuse your opponent, that gives you a big advantage. The same in blade work. If you circle parry sixte twice the odds are you will do a third one. A quickening in the attacker's tempo and he beats you with his disengage and gets a hit. So, circle, circle, LATERAL. They will never predict that, (unless you do it twice..). Remember, you are constantly teaching your opponent how you fence! It is my rule of 2. Never do anything more than twice in sequence.
3. Do make sure you brush your teeth at night! It means 6-8 hours of bacteria free teeth. If you want a fresh up in the morning use a mouthwash!
Andrew Nisbet I really think these are some of the best fencing tips I’ve ever heard, not just because of the content, but also because of the writing. Thanks!
esp. Nr. 3 is very important, i can see that.
I think in Foil and Sabre the forward lean lunge is acceptable or even preferable. With priority you can afford to go for very deep attacks, if you can force your opponent to make big retreats it’s not that big of an issue.
@@EstellammaSS Until he doesnt retreat or parry ripostes, or counter attacks. What are your options then?
Hey Coach Tyler !!! This is really cool to see that someone is finally putting out fencing training content on youtube consistently. I wish I had this during the time I started out.
Also wanted to ask you .... I played Sabre fencing (which is my favourite) from 2008 - 2012. Then I stopped playing frencing. Do you advice on whether its a vice decision to take that blade again and start playing professionally again (I am 24 years old now) ???
Regards.
Love from India.
Very useful tips! Thx Coach Tyler!
Good stuff
Thank you so much for such a detailed analysis! Great job!

Fabris rapierists: DO THE OPPOSITE! DO THE OPPOSITE!
Fabris' Rapier Stance:
-legs close
-crunching up and leaning forward
-use passing footwork to advance
-strike and defend at the same time
-flicking your sword is literally the worst possible sin
-dont get your sword on guard until the last possible second
Modern foil is derived from smallsword, and even historical smallsword fencing is different than historical rapier. I do modern fencing as well as HEMA (rapier, smallsword, sabre and longsword). I know what you mean lol
Thank you so much! I am a beginner in Europe and all of your vids (drills and explanations) are super helpful☺️
Thank you very much, you are the best, your videoes are really helpful for my son's footwork.
Very useful thanks a lot
Thanks coach Tyler! Enjoying the content
Hey coach Tyler, I've been watching your videos and they're amazing! I was wondering if you could share anything you might know about the mental and tactical sides of fencing. That is probably what I struggle with kept so any advice would be super helpful!
Agree that would be a really useful aid.
Thanks Alec! I will definitely make some videos about that. Stay Tuned!
As with.all your videos, you explain everything so well and so clearly, many thanks Coach Tyler for this video and for all your videos.
Hi, can you comment more on the emphasis on what you call the ""rolling motion"?
I find that it adds too much "dead time", especially on retreat.
Great question! I explain more in this video!

Thank you very much and we need more information about mistakes 🤺🤺
Great stuff! I am making this available to the HS team I coach because we are stuck doing Zoom practices for at least the next month.
This is the best tips for a beginner. Thank you!
thank you so much, I just started fencing in university, and this video helps a lot.
this is amazing
Fascinating, I do boffer and have always adopted a makeshift fencing style, which has been very advantageous, I look forward to learning more!
Great vid!
Can u do some online coaching
Thank you
i just started learning fencing late (42 years old)..any tips on moving forward?
How's the journey going
There are so many "AHA, so that's why..." moments as he explains the reasons for various foot and body positions.
😂Wow!🎉Great video!👍
This is awesome . My daughter was making so many such mistakes she learned a lot.
Great
"Neon-style" Olympic Fencing stance instructions I made (for Jugger, but is the same) ua-cam.com/video/2KGYT6B9I38/v-deo.html ... and by the way, I sometimes see (even with your colleague in another video of yours) that they sort of "flip" on the side of their back foot when doing a lunge. I was taught to keep a flat foot on the ground in my sports fencing years, and it still seems sensible to me (also in respect to body mechanics). Boy, they chased us round and round that gym at the beginning of every lesson ... How important would you say would this flat foot be, at a lunge?
Uhu Uvelius on Jugger I’ve noticed that! I was always told back foot flat when in lunge, too. I’m really curious as to why he doesn’t do so. Seems like it would be better for balance and recovery time.

My lounge is not proper
I really miss fencing - stoopid pandemic
