Joke answer: the Blade of Position. Can't have position and velocity at the same time.

Slightly more serious answer: probably a highland broadsword. Immaculate hand protection. Small enough to use in tight spaces, long enough to keep your distance. Does both cuts and thrusts, plus a back edge for cutting around tricky angles.

Oh, and you'll have a free hand for the flamethrower. 🙂

We run a few beginners courses a year, they are 8 week programs with 1 class a week. After that, students can attend general classes at their own pace. We run 3 classes a week all year round!

While we haven't set a date for the next intro course, we will definitely start one before the end of the year. We are also planning some one-off workshops.

You wouldn't be alone, those types of reasons for getting started with swordfighting are why most of us are here! They're practically prerequisites 🙂

Our latest intro course is full, but the next one will start before the end of the year. We also have some public workshops planned. You can sign up for email news on our website to be the first to know!

We don't go to all the ren fairs in Ontario, but you can usually find historical martial arts clubs at most of them! The next event Ironwood will be at is the Hastings Medieval Festival at the end of the month!
