Disclaimer: This glossary exists solely to help savateurs and savateuses unfamiliar with the French language keep track of the different terms used in the art. It is in no way a complete guide to savate and should not be treated as such. In other words, if you hurt yourself or someone else trying anything in this glossary, it's not my fault. Also, this document is very much a work in progress at this point, so some information is missing.

Note: Pronunciations are approximate, due to the fact that some sounds in spoken French don't exist in spoken English, and I can't be bothered to learn the phonetic alphabet used in dictionaries. :-) Guides for English words used in French show the French pronunciation.
