Full Rapier Sample Lesson: Yielding Glide

First off, let me know if these sorts of videos are interesting or helpful to folks. I mostly post this sort of stuff on social media, but I can sneak in some here on Youtube if folks want it here, too. This is a full lesson sample with a a focus on the yielding glide in rapier. A yielding glide (sometimes called a false-edge attack) is “an attack which yields to the adversary’s strong engagement in order to angle around the opposing steel while maintaining contact.” It’s also useful if the angle of the opponent’s blade is such that a disengagement would be large. Since you don’t have opposition, the action can lead to doubles, so choosing the right moment is key; I also like teaching to get the offhand extended to help oppose any late attempts at doubling. We looked at using the yielding glide in several scenarios: ⚔️ As a simple attack ⚔️ As a riposte ⚔️ To defeat a parry (after feinting) ⚔️ As a renewed attack You’ll notice we started off super simpler here, working on the technique in measure. We quickly then added in some simple footwork, more challenging mobility work, and option drills throughout the lesson. This is about a 15-20 minute lesson edited down to 4 minutes for you. Great work by Anezka here. You can find a version of this video on Facebook, as well.   / 17znqugd3b   ⚜️Lesson Actions⚜️ From the coach’s engagement of 4th, yielding glide (00:00) From the student’s finding of 4th, yielding glide (00:10) From the student’s finding of 4th, glide OR yielding glide (00:22) From the student’s finding of 4th, glide OR yielding glide (with mobility) (00:36) From the student’s finding of 3rd, simple parry of 4th & riposte by yielding glide (00:58) From the student’s finding of 3rd, simple parry of 4th & riposte by glide OR yielding glide (01:10) From the student’s finding of 3rd, simple parry of 4th & riposte by glide OR yielding glide (with mobility) (01:26) From the student’s finding of 4th, feint by glide & yielding glide (01:48) From the student’s finding of 4th, feint by glide & yielding glide OR complete attack (02:04) From the student’s finding of 4th, feint by glide & yielding glide OR complete attack (with mobility) (02:32) From the student’s finding of 4th, glide, then renewed attack yielding glide with pass (02:53) From the student’s finding of 4th, glide OR glide, then renewed attack yielding glide with pass (03:21) 📕 Yielding Attack definition from “Fundamentals of Italian Rapier” by David Coblentz, Master at Arms, and Dori Coblentz, Master at Arms, Ph.D, (2025). https://shop.ingramspark.com/b/084?pa... ---- DONATIONS: If you found this video useful or interesting, please consider a small donation so I can continue to produce rapier & other historical martial arts content.

He’s the founder of ‪@bostonacademiedarmes‬, a historical fencing school for HEMA & SCA fencers, with a focus on French and Italian rapier, Italian smallsword, and Italian dueling saber. He puts an emphasis on good body mechanics and helping his fencers to improve their physical fitness, athletic ability, and fencing skill while operating within their current physical limitations. As a competitor, Justin has won numerous rapier tournaments in the SCA -- both in singles and in group melee. He is 15th member of the East Kingdom’s Order of Defense, holds a Silver Broach and Maunche for his historical martial arts research, and a Silver Wheel and Silver Crescent for his coaching. He’s currently the Consort’s Arts & Science Champion for his research and experiment in the armor protection a wool cloak gives against attacks from a sharp rapier. Outside of the SCA and the Academie, Justin has taught rapier at Athena School of Arms and workshops at events such as Western Martial Arts Workshop (WMAW), Lord Baltimore's Challenge, the American Smallsword Symposium, Salla Della Spada's French Fencing Workshop, and Iron Gate Exhibition (IGX).
