Welcome at the Medieval Swordfight Workshop!



<img:stuff/ElementalSwordDivider.gif>


On the 15th of July 2006 I have arranged a Medieval Swordfight Workshop with 2 instructors:


Mishael Lopez Gardozo and Kenneth Smolders.
In my Hometown Leeuwarden.
In Holland there are about 7 Medieval schools,
but NUN in the north where I live! So what do you do?
You create a workshop, to make a start with....


This workshop was split in 4 pieces:


A. Background information about the manuscripts from the old
sword fight masters from Italy and germany.


B. Mediveal wrestling techniques.


C. Knife and dagger fighting


D. And of course the sword fight training!


And from this workshop, a Medieval workgroup is formed now!
So, once a month one of the instuctors will come to Leeuwarden,
For a Instruction lesson, and the group will work it out the following month....
