Beginner's class 1:
Introduction to Longsword
We will begin the class focusing on the basic movement of the longsword, from guards and footwork, to strikes and thrusts. Throughout the class we will touch on the historical aspects of what we do and how we got here. All our longsword trainings and techniques come from or are based on the masters of the 14th and 15th century.
This class will be taught by Lochlan, Founder and Head Instructor
Beginner's class 2:
Longsword techniques from masters.
We will start with a review on the privious class and refamiliarizing you all with the longsword basics. From there we will move to drills, practice binds and more advanced sword and body movements. Throughout the class we will be teaching you a few techniques to show how well the longsword works and get a taste of what our regular classes will be like.
Torward the end of class 2 there will be a "meet and greet" with our instructors before Sunday's basic and advanced longsword class. The instructors will break out into small groups to showcase the different weapons that we teach durring our regular week. This is a great opportunity to hang out, ask questions, pick up weapons, and try on gear.
Each student will be able to sign up as dues-paying members or opt for drop-in classes after successfully completing beginner's coursework.
These beginner's classes are NOT refundable. If you get hurt, sick, etc. we completely understand. Please contact odin@warriorsofash.com to reschedule for another month. Classes are for ages 18+
