About the Event
The course runs for eight weeks, and teaches the fundamentals of single sword play based on a study of various historical sources. We'll provide all of the equipment you need, just wear clothes and shoes that you can work-out in.
At the end of the 8 week course there will be a grading day, after which you can become a full member of the club and go on to learn advanced techniques with single sword, as well as other weapons and styles such as Longsword, Sword and Buckler, Sword and Dagger, Rapier, and many others.
We ask that you try not to miss any classes, as if you do you will fall behind. We do ask you to pay $50 to confirm your place and attend this course, however at the end of the course this amount will be discounted on your annual fee if you decide to join the club (making the beginner course essentially free as long as you become a club member). Our annual fees are only $200 per year - one of the cheapest martial arts schools in New Zealand!
Note: This event is only available to those 18 years old and over.
