| What does your en guarde look like?
The style im taught is to hold my foil in sixte(elbow down, hand above elbow, etc), with my other arm/forearm forming a right angle up in the air, except i let my hand flop so it looks like this...
forearm > |-----
------ ^ hand
^ arm
I love my drawings. Lol.
EDIT: since the forum wont let my drawing work, the "^ hand" part is actually underneath the ---- next to the forearm

As you can see it's a bit unorthodox, but great for quick beat attacks. | |

I'm left handed but couldnt be bothered doing a left handed stick man. I'm lazy. Point should be slightly above the guard. I even put in my pot belly.
