Learn Rapier VI. - Third Guard

Part VI. of my video series about fencing with the symbol of the renaissance - the rapier, according to the teachings of Salvator Fabris and other masters. The four guards in rapier correspond to four hand positions. When we say ’third guard’, the hand lies in its most natural vertical position. The guard and the position in vastly used since it doesn’t encumber the arm too much. Besides the standard guards of the third I also introduce the very special Fabris’ “high third“ which isn’t widely known or used despite being awesome.
