First Steps - Solo

[Jaron Bernstein]

Nathan, where are you based?

I am about to start-up a training group in Northern Dublin- well, trainings will actually take place in Rush on tuesday evenings ,as we have free acces to a school there and then.
So far there's 2 (maybe 3) Polish guys and one Irish.
The more the better.

None of us have really had any experience with historical swordfighting, but we'll try to do our best to learn quickly.

I know there is a guy in Cavan who trains historical stuff as well- I will probably be able to get a contact if you want.

my phone: 086-225-70-69

Michal.


P.S. As for books I bought Knightly art of the Longsword online on Paladin press website. Delivery time was around a week.

I don't know of any ARMA folks in Ireland or the UK, but I suggest contacting these guys http://www.fioredeiliberi.org/ for an introductory session and some guidance if you can. They mainly study Italian masters (ARMA takes a more holistic approach), but they are knowledgable and can direct further.

thanks jaron i got onto them before they do good work but i agree more with arma's view of dealing with it as a whole martial art but they do good work. and are a good group to get hold of there are plenty of groups in the uk but if i remeber from all the searching there is 2 in ireland and michal's will be the 3 sad numbers i admit but will be good thing to do
