Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this martial arts class:

Students will be introduced to the basics of common spear fighting, and progress through quarterstaff, halberd, and short spear techniques as taught by German fencing master, Joachim Meyer. Using pine quarterstaves, students will learn common spear attacks as well as the five guards, and the plays from those guards.

Following this class, students may continue to practice in the Applied Techniques/Sparring session. Any students wishing to participate must have a fencing mask, throat protection, hard gloves (lacrosse or Red Dragon is insufficient), and a hard chest protector is recommended but not required. 

Students using pine staves may only practice thrusting techniques.

Important Note: 
The $10 intro rate is only for a client's first class.
