About this event
Saturdays, 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM Open Floor available before and after class Instructor: Eric Lowe
This class focuses on historical sword and shield systems from Italian sources such as Achille Marozzo and Antonio Manciolino, with additional reference to other 16th-century authors where appropriate.
Students will work with both bucklers (small center-gripped shields) and rotellas (larger arm-strapped shields), developing a broader understanding of late medieval and Renaissance sword-and-shield combat. The class is beginner friendly and suitable for students interested in any form of one-handed swordsmanship.
Open Floor training and sparring opportunities are available before and after class.
Recommended Gear: Comfortable athletic clothing and shoes, athletic groin protection, and any fencing gear you may already own. Loaner equipment is available, and any one-handed sword simulator is welcome.
How to Join: Your first two class days are free. Before attending, please review all of our policies, then create a PushPress account and sign up for at least the free trial membership through HEMAA using the links on our website: https://crossroadsswords.com/join-us
