HEMA & FITNESS CLASSES
Whether you’re completely new to historical martial arts or looking to take your training further, our classes give adults a clear path to progress.
Each month, we follow a weekly structure of teaching fundamentals, then drills and techniques and finish each month with sparring.
Although our main focus is with longsword, we do offer featured classes to learn dagger, sword and shield, pole-arms and abrazare (medieval wrestling).
We also run fitness conditioning classes to help you build your strength, stamina and overall fitness to fence better.
UPCOMING TRIAL CLASSES
You can book directly through our Gymcatch booking system.

CONDITIONING FOR THE MODERN FENCER
UPCOMING FITNESS CLASSES
Small-group Functional Fitness to get you prepared for the battlefield. Think cardio, barbells, kettlebells, medicine balls, TRX rowers. Leave the swords at home for this one.
