Activities
Everyone is welcome to participate in any of the training activities including heavy combatants and the focus is on training, learning and having a good time.
In additional to the standard rapier training we offer, we also have the flexibility to undertake studies of period sword manuals for various combat systems and weapons e.g. German Long Sword. Such studies fall under the SCA's Royal Guild of Defence structure.
Under the Guild structure students are permitted to use actual period sword techniques like half swording, warding and grappling. A video of these techniques can be found at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kj4Ng6DBfrg
