Legendary fencing instructor Maitre Bac H. Tau described what he called the ''six essentials that are in a fencer''s mind'': ''The first is called spirit; The second, rhythm; The third, thought; The fourth, technique; The fifth, tactic, and the last is strategy.'' As a fencer you can fight with spirit, experience rhythm, think your way around problems, and develop technique, tactic and strategy by training with top-flight fencing masters.
But there is more. Modern fencing is a highly competitive speed and endurance sport and the ''seventh essential'' in a high-performance fencer''s mind is how to prepare themselves physically and mentally to fence. In High Performance Fencing: The Seventh Essential, Ed Rogers covers every aspect of the preparation required by a fencer competing at the highest level.
The book provides sound practical advice and is based on tried-and-tested training principles that have repeatedly proved successful.
