And here are a few photos from A Knight at the Symphony by the Ottawa Pops Orchestra. Such an incredible event that we were thrilled to be a part of!
It’s been a busy couple of weeks! On June 20/21, we were back at Ottawa Italian Festival for demonstrations, impromptu classes, and fencing (of course), and last night, we had the distinct pleasure of bringing some swordplay to A Knight at the Symphony by the Ottawa Pops Orchestra!
This month, we are running our intake program twice, so if you want to learn how to fence from the ground up, from how to stand and move to how to attack and defend, come check us out!
I hope everyone is having a great weekend! A quick note that we will not be running class this Monday, but will be resuming regular classes on Wednesday. See you then!
Happy New Year, everyone! This coming Saturday, we have a combination fencing and feasting event: come on down!
Hello, all! It has been a while since our last update! We have been quite busy since this summer, teaching at two events and running class two, even three days a week.
We have some exciting events coming up over the next three months, including:
- Scholar test of Maxim
- Workshop on striking and gioco stretto taught by the Toronto crew
- End of year party, which is both a free fencing time open to all AND a feast
- A very special workshop in mid-January taught by one of our good friends from New York.
I’ll be posting the official event pages for all of these over the coming days. Stay tuned!
We have an exciting weekend planned at the Ottawa Italian Festival! We have a tent on Preston across from the Absolute Comedy club on Preston, and will be doing fencing demos today (Saturday) at 5:00 pm and tomorrow (Sunday) at 2:00 pm. Feel free to stop by, say hi, and find out what we are all about!

Class One (6 to 7) - Dagger and Cloak (Marozzo)
Class Two (7 to 8:30) - Full review of Cinghiale Porta di Ferro defences (Dall'Agocchie)
