Fencing, a unique combative sport that is part of the Summer Olympics, pits two sword-wielding competitors against one another in a contest of skill and athleticism. Each fencer attempts to touch the other with the tip of his sword to score touches, or points.

Fencing is a potent mix of swordplay, athleticism and tactical maneuvering. In order to unlock your opponent’s defenses, you will need a repertoire of moves at your disposal. By combining these moves, you will be able to manipulate your adversary and create space in which to register a touch on your opponent.
