There are always plenty of people involved here in Armoured Combat. Both beginner and intermediate skills classes are run quite regularly for those interested in “Heavy” (less scary than it sounds and loads of fun). The classes involve sets of drills and technique practice both in armour and out of armour (for people without) to learn and develop proper technique in the heavy arts. Even if you have never done anything like it before, please feel free to come along to join in, learn or simply take a look! Fencing Combat practice . If you are interested in fencing combat involving rapiers, daggers, and longswords – we can help you out. Classes start around 7, breaking into one-on-one teaching sessions and pick-up fights. No gear required, though a pair of leather gloves (garden gloves are fine) will help. Come along and have a chat with us and we can get you started!
