Learn historical swordsmanship with expert instructors Michael Thomas & Nick Thomas. Founded in 2006 by the Thomas Brothers, our school is one of the longest standing historical fencing schools in the UK with classes in Bristol, Caerwent, and Chepstow.

We teach armed and unarmed combat in the English, German and Italian traditions using longswords, sword & buckler, side-sword, rapier and military sabre. We train with both synthetic and steel weapons and suitable armour is always worn for sparring.
