Spring is coming - 2025.
Historical Swordsmanship sparring camp 16-19.03.2025
Fencing in the mountains in the spring!
We are gathering just before the coming of spring for a few days dedicated to Historical fencing freeplay. We will have not only Open floor, but fencing games, sparring coaching, ruleset variations experiments, judged matches etc. A few short workshops will be focused on how to fence safely and efficiently during your freeplay time, specially if you are with unknown opponents.
We will also have a small unofficial competition to top it off.
Accommodation
We will be staining in the city of Bansko - a famous resort in the Bulgarian mountains.
I have chosen a hotel that offers accommodation in 2 and 3 people rooms, 3 meals a day and a training hall specially for us. Cost will be 155 Euro per person for the whole event with everything included.
I have plans for you
While the event will be focused on freeplay and not technical training there will still be a plan to follow. We will have short workshops, fencing games and planned activities to make you fence in variety of ways.
The current plan is approximate and will be presented with more detailed timing closer to the event.
Who can participate?
Everyone engaged in historical swordsmanship is welcomed. To get the full benefit of the event however at least partial, preferably full gear is required.
I can lend some elements if notified early enough. There is an option for providing swords and transport from Sofia if anyone decides to fly in.
