History
We began as a swordfighting club, with enthusiasts in history, combative and martial arts, fiction, and medieval arms and armor. Today, we are an internationally active and competitive club in the Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA) scene. We continue share our love of swords and swordsmanship with our new members! ...And our love of sprints and burpees, which new students do not love so much. :D Swordsmanship is a demanding physical activity, requiring exercise and practice. It is easy to begin, but difficult to excel at. We help all our members find their personal balance of recreation, study, and physical challenge.
