🔥 Meet the next featured guest of HEMA Perspectives — Miro Lahtela

Miro is one of the most accomplished active HEMA competitors in the world, currently ranked 2nd worldwide in Steel Longsword. With extensive international experience and hundreds of rated bouts across multiple countries, he represents the highest level of modern competitive HEMA.

Known for technical precision, clean mechanics, and structured training, Miro combines deep source-based understanding with constant pressure-testing in top-level tournaments. His approach shows how theory and competition meet at the highest level.

In HEMA Perspectives, we’ll talk about training structure, competition preparation, handling pressure, common mistakes that slow development, and how he sees the future of HEMA in the coming years.

More featured guests coming soon. ⚔️

🚀 After the success of HEMA DECK, we’re starting something NEW! ⚔️📚

Over the past few years, while training, assembling equipment, and actively participating in the HEMA community, one thing became clear: There are excellent historical sources. There are experienced instructors. There are many interpretations.

But there is no single, structured guide explaining modern HEMA as it exists today.

That's why we decided to create HEMA MANUAL.

It is not a techniques book. It is not a historical treatise.

It is a structured guide to understanding modern HEMA — its equipment standards, terminology, training realities, and community structure.

Our goal is not only to organize knowledge, but to support the long-term growth of HEMA as a living culture — and to make it easier for new generations of practitioners to enter the community with clarity and confidence.

A book we were looking for when we started.

The Kickstarter pre-launch page is now live.
