[expand title=”What is it?“]
Classes at the Sussex Sword Academy are open to anyone over the age of 16.
Our teaching structure is a combination of drilling and free play. A beginner can feel confident that they will not be introduced to any free play (fencing) until they are taught controlled use of the sword, how to defend themselves and feel fully confident.
We encourage people to enjoy themselves whilst developing their “Art of Defence”.
