Advertisement
Three days of fencing ⚔️, fun 🎉, food 🍲, and friends 🤝 (and foolery 😜?)!
Fencing workshops and lectures, some local (liquid 💦) cultural activities, and a lot of fencing with friends!
Rapier, messer, longsword, sabre, smallsword, side-sword, historical dance, sword in one hand, Destreza, Thibault, …
The general theme of the workshop is to work across boarders: across disciplines, across instructors, schools, and styles.
There will always be one hall for free fencing.
