Vechten als een Middeleeuwse ridder in harnas wordt populairder, maar kost wel wat: ‘Dit is 25.000 waard’ Glimmende ijzeren harnassen, zwaarden, maliënkolders en strijdhamers. Vier avonden per week verandert een gymzaal in Rijswijk in een middeleeuws slagveld. Liefhebbers hijsen zich in ruim 25 kilo wegende harnassen van minstens 10.000 euro om te vechten zoals vroeger.

Wapenkunst Academie Rijswijk is officially 1 years old! To celebrate this, we organized our first annual Fechtschule style Club Tournament. It was fun, it was inspirational, it was everything we hoped to be. During this year we managed to gather really amazing people in the club, and we are grateful to them for making every day special.
Congratulations to Bas and Nordin who respectively earned the laurel leaves for their performance in Messer and Longsword!
PS. Tune in for one of the bouts! 😎
