Due to a sudden surge in interest, I have extended and split my Thursday evening booking at the Knights of Columbus Hall and can now confirm that I will be running a Youth Swordplay course from 6:45 until 7:45.

This also means that the Duelling with Rapier class will be moving by a half hour and will now run from 7:45-915.

I am making the youth class available to kids aged 9-15, although I welcome the parents of any students to also sign up. This course focuses on medieval single sword based on a variety of historical sources. At the beginning of the course, students will use padded training swords exclusively, but if they demonstrate safe and responsible use of this equipment, they will earn the opportunity to use more realistic training swords.

Please contact me to sign up for this course or for more information.
