The Exiles Cheltenham
A Western Martial Arts School training weekly in the Historical European Martial Art of Fiore
The Exiles is a Martial Arts organisation based in the UK, with classes in Europe and the US. We teach a workable and full martial curriculum to students based on the works for Fiore dei Liberi, a teacher of combat in the late 14th and early 15th Century. To that end, we aim to learn all of the skills involved in life or death combat of the period, including:
- Unarmed Striking and Grappling
- Da

It is with sorrow that we announce the passing of Rob Lovett. He died peacefully in his sleep on Saturday.
Rob was a founder of The Exiles and led the group for 25 years, building it into a full organisation as well as working through translations and interpretations to create a complete curriculum.
His influence on ourselves and other HEMA groups cannot be overstated and we raise a glass to him and hope that is he discussing the finer points with Fiore.
Playing with Due Mani beats and covers, A dynamic exercise with no real intent to land a blow. Bonus dirty trick at the end.
