Ever wanted to fence like Shakespeare or a Renaissance rogue?

You can do just that in our Beginners Rapier classes. We’ll go through the basics of how to hold a rapier, the specific guards, as well as some footwork to get you started, along with simple defences and attacks.

We have three ways you can join our Rapier class. Firstly, a dedicated Beginners Session, held at the same time as our regular classes once every (approximately) 6 weeks. You can also join us via a Rapier Crash Course, which takes half a day and goes further and covers around 2-3 classes’ worth of content. Finally, you can also join as part of a Taster Session.

After attending any one of these sessions, you will then join our regular Wednesday classes.
