Static Footwork Exercises - Part V. Ducking Counter Attack

Footwork exercises you can do at the club or at home! Static Footwork Exercises simulate the actions of movement experienced on the piste without needing all the space a piste requires! The “Ducking Counter Attack“ is a useful tool in the fencer’s tactical wheel! This exercise helps you explore the physical demands of applying such a counter attack as well as some recovery action, such as the lunge, to make it adaptable to changing situations. This counter attack is applicable to all three weapons, though this particular exercise is best suited for foil and epee. osmfencing@
