Spanish School of Swordsmanship

The Spanish School of Swordsmanship is a historical martial art emphasizing precise technique, timing, and strategic use of the rapier and dagger. Developed during Spain’s Golden Age, it focuses on fluid, elegant movements and masterful control, blending offense and defense seamlessly. Practitioners study detailed stance, footwork, and blade work through detailed manuals and drills, aiming for efficiency and effectiveness. This tradition shaped Western fencing and emphasizes understanding one’s opponent, mental discipline, and adaptable tactics, making it both an art form and a practical self-defense system rooted in Spain’s rich martial history.
