This free introductory course includes a short beginner’s lesson in renaissance-style rapier.
It’s a cost-free way to find out more about the core tenets of historical martial arts and find out whether this kind of training is right for you. It’s intended as a jumping-off point into our paid packages and subscriptions, but there’s plenty to benefit and interest you here even if you decide not to go any further!
As someone who never had martial arts training I found the videos very useful. The instructions are very detailed and help me a lot in understanding body mechanics. Most importantly, you cover all the basics that a beginner needs to know, and that’s very important.” (referring to several other of my courses she has taken) – Riri Nitihardjo, Jakarta, Indonesia
