Master the Art of the Rapier
In his Academie de l’Espée, Dutch swordmaster Gérard Thibault d’Anvers recorded one of the most sophisticated fencing systems ever devised, blending elegant geometry with a precise, systematic approach to combat. Yet its complexity has often made it a daunting read for new students.
Thibault Rapier: A Systematic Guide to Thibault’s Academy of the Sword presents a structured introduction to Thibault’s fencing method, distilling Academie de l’Espée down to its essential theory. Beginning with high-level strategy, it explores key techniques, their tactical applications, and their connection to the broader tradition of La Verdadera Destreza, the Spanish school of rapier combat. The book also includes essential drills to help readers internalize the fundamental actions of the system.
Sharpen your knowledge. Refine your technique. Step into the circle.
