Johan Harmenberg met an innovative coach, Eric Sollee, when he studied at MIT in USA. Scribbling on a napkin in a Cambridge bar, Eric, Johan, and the other MIT fencers sketched the ”Three Conjectures of a new fencing paradigm” – a way to force a more skillful opponent to play your game. On his return to Sweden, Johan developed it further, then put it into effect with a vengeance. Johan won the World Championship in 1977 and the Olympic Gold Medal in 1980. His groundbreaking book Epee 2.0, reveals Johan’s methods, showing how to neutralize the superior technique of even the best classical fencers. Now you have the chance to meet him in person and hear Johan explain the background and the basics of the ”Three Conjectures”.
