Bolognese Swordsmanship

Sword with Sidearms

Created by a Professor of Mathematics & Astrology during the early Renaissance, the Bolognese art utilizes geometry to strike the enemy and achieve the full power of the body.

There are four ancient texts that we use to study this art:

  • The Anonimo Bolognese

  • The Opera Nova of Antonio Manciolino

  • The Opera Nova of Achille Marozzo

  • Three Books on the Art of Defense by Giovanni dall'Agocchie
