Four-Hour Longsword Workshop (Nov)

Learn to fight with a longsword like a knight from Game of Thrones, or like Aragorn from Lord of the Rings. Are you looking for a gift for that special someone? This is perfect! Give them the gift of sword fighting. You can send him or her to the class or attend with him! If you know of anyone that you think would enjoy this class, please pass the information on to them or give me a call for more information. This is a four-hour intensive class for the sword students who would like to attend class at the school but live out of the area or don't have the time to commit each week to class. This class is good for students of all skill levels. Whether you have years of experience in martial arts or are new to studying a martial art you can take this class. If you enjoy fantasy novels or history this class will allow you to experience the sword work you have only read about. Every month we gather for four hours to study the long sword. The first three hours are spent on the curriculum of the school and the final hour is spent working on a specific technique from Fior dei Battaglia (Flos Duellatorum written in 1409). I have loaner equipment for the students that do not have their own swords or helmets, all you need to bring are gloves. If you have your own wasters and helmet, please bring them with you.The dress of the day is sweats, a T-shirt, and comfortable shoes.
