How to teach excellent Fencing in a group situation,
By mark w headley (Berkeley, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Revised Foil (Paperback)
Charles Selberg created the finest group fencing program the US has ever witnessed in the 1970s and early 80s at the Univ. of Cal, Santa Cruz where he was tenure professor. His book reflects a deep knowledge of sport in a manner which avoids the usual technical cravass that so many fencing writers fall into. The book is the only guide I know of that can allow a high school or college coach to develop a true group program. Historically, fencing has been largely been a matter of one-on-one instruction, and this has obviously been a problem for school or community programs. It is accessible and technically accurate. The comments on competitive fencing are extremely insightful and valuable to any level of fencer. While there are many approaches to fencing, Selberg's style is simple and effective - based on years of competitive experience and training with a number of European masters including the great Hungarian, George Piller.
