About the Event
Join us for a 3-hour immersive workshop exploring the art of sword and buckler fencing in the German tradition of Kunst des Fechtens with special guest instructor Mordhau Historical Combat.
The workshop begins with an introduction to the historical source materials that shape this martial tradition, including the works of renowned fencing masters Andres Lignitzer, Paulus Kal, and Hans Talhoffer. After establishing the historical context, participants will gear up and work through the six plays of Lignitzer. If time allows, the workshop will also explore techniques preserved in the writings of Kal and Talhoffer.
This workshop is beginner-friendly, while offering plenty of depth and challenge for experienced buckler fighters. All skill levels are welcome.
