Hi Alan,

The manuals I use teach from are Joseph Swetnam - Noble and Worthy Science of Defence; 1617, Pallas Armata - The Gentleman's Armoury; 1639, Flos Duellatorum; 1409, George Silver - Paradox of Defence; 1599, Fillipo Vadi - De Arte Gladiatoria Dimicandi; 1485, and Achille Marozzo - Opera Nova; 1536.




Hey!

So, what books do you study?

I would be happy to have you come by and check out the school.  The Rapier and Dagger class is held on every Tues. and Thrus. evening from 7 - 8 pm.  You are welcome to come by and visit, as is everyone else on this list.  If you come by, our room is in the back of the building and a little hard to find. Please call me at        408-857-0120, and I will make sure that there is someone there to help you find us. 


Steaphen,
I would like to view your Italian Rapier and Dagger sparring and techniques if possible.
Thanks!
The best to you! Train hard and have fun!
Guro Dennis Servaes
