Fencing Analysis

Not a sports psychology text, but also not a technical text on the fundamentals of fencing. It is a book that wants to analyze the link between the two disciplines, emphasizing the relational aspect of the discipline.
Each chapter has a technical section explained in such a way as to be understood even by non-experts, and a supporting "psychological interpretation", mirrored by analogy.
In the appendix, a small experimental research conducted through social channels that has seen the participation of national and international fencers, through a questionnaire with multiple choice questions and open questions, completely anonymous, open to all regardless of age.
Were explored the needs, expectations and psychological characteristics of athletes and teachers, in the relationship between them, in the hall and in race.
A challenge - our bout as we say in fencing language - to put on the platform, one in front of the other, the skills of each.
Not the teacher with the student, nor the psychotherapist with his analyzed, not even the race between two opponents, but two professionals with the same passion and the same goal, with no winners or losers; the demonstration of being able to reconcile two topics so seemingly opposite, yet so inexorably close in different human contexts: communication, relationship, emotional and cognitive dimension.
