Frequently asked questions
When Can I Start?
We'll always welcome new fighters at any one of our classes, but we set aside the first Saturday of each month for new fighters. During our first Saturday sessions you'll get a comprehensive review of HEMA and what our club does.
What Do I Wear?
For your first session just wear comfortable work out clothes and gym shoes.Please wear shoes that do not have a heavy tread.What we don't provide is protective cups for men, so please bring your own.
When you first come to the club we will provide you with almost everything you need. For women, we do have plastrons for the chest.
An example of our full uniform is red socks, knee-pants, club shirt, and proper shoes. Our club shirts can be purchased online at
