Sinossi

Fencing Tactics explores the intricate strategies behind the sport of fencing, revealing how tactical thinking, reflex development, and efficient movement are crucial for success. It demonstrates that a fencer's prowess extends beyond mere athleticism, delving into the intellectual and strategic elements often overlooked.

 
 Did you know that understanding historical fencing manuals can provide insights into the strengths and weaknesses of modern techniques? Or that biomechanical analysis optimizes movement efficiency and reduces injury risk?

 
 The book progresses systematically, starting with core fencing concepts such as distance management and blade work. It then analyzes offensive, defensive, and counter-offensive tactics, including attack combinations and parry variations.

 
 Connecting fencing to broader fields, Fencing Tactics draws parallels with military strategy and sports psychology, enhancing understanding of planning, adaptation, and managing pressure. This approach, blending historical context with modern analysis, offers a unique perspective for competitive fencers and coaches.

Ulrike Reinhard, with the help...

Skater Girl Asha tells the TRUE story of how Asha, an Untouchable, broke courageously with the traditional conventions in her village and shaped her life ever since. She escaped her arranged marriage and found her passion and purpose through skateboarding. Today, Asha is a strong voice for all the girls in her village of Janwaar – and far beyond. 
“Before the skatepark started, I was very different. I didn’t know my own voice. I couldn’t talk to anyone. I couldn’t even make eye contact with anyone. I never made any decision on my own – only my family members would decide what is good and what is bad for me. This has changed completely when the skatepark came to my village. I’ve found my voice. It is a long and bumpy road I am on – but I take it as the challenges occur!”

Testament of a Trout Fisher

Laurence Catlow

Laurence Catlow is considered one of the finest classical flyfishing writers of our times and here he explores the themes close to an angler's heart:


* why catching two trout each time matters so much to him

* the experience of fishing in contrast to a day's shooting

* the melancholy appeal of autumn fishing

* the difference between holiday fishing and home fishing

* the secrets of a flytyer

* starting the season on the river

* big trout or little trout: why he prefers the latter

* why fishing is a lifelong joy

* fishing the mayfly
'The best flyfishing book to cross my desk this year, without a doubt. Catlow's writing is easily accessible, simple English fused into passages that flow like a chalkstream glide, littered with lines that sit in the memory long after their page has turned.' Trout Fisherman, Jeffrey Prest, 4 January
