What will you learn:

For ages 18 and up, our sabre course focuses on an introduction to 19th century military sabre. Starting from the basics of footwork and cuts, this course sets a foundation on which to build more sparring central skills. The curriculum is based primarily on sources like Hutton and Wait. For each of the 8 weeks new skills will be introduced until the final class where everything culminates in a sparring day so students can practice everything they’ve learned. This course is set up to be accessible for beginners while still imparting new techniques and practice for those with some sabre experience.
