Saturday Sparring Event (2-5pm), hosted by the Academy of Historical Fencing. This began as a chance for the two AHF clubs to get together for three hours of sparring, but is now open to any member of a HEMA club. There will be no instruction, only fighting! If you are a member of a HEMA club and are insured, you are welcome to come along.

A mixture of single and group sparring with any weapons that we currently train with. The session will be three hours long on the Saturday afternoon, and will cost £6 per person. The location (Chepstow Leisure Centre) is very easy for everyone to access for all. We havethe entire hall to use, meaning bucket loads of space for all.

You must bring your own gear, there will not be kit to borrow. This event is for AHF members, and members of other fully insured HEMA clubs. All participants must be a minimum of 18 years old.

Party at Nick and Esther’s place afterwards. (Newport)
