Italian Renaissance Swordsmanship Academy

Review from my 15-year-old son: Tony is a great teacher, everyone is very friendly, and sword fighting is lots of fun. Review from me: We were really happy that our son found this school to take his fencing to the next level. Class schedule and location are both really convenient and pricing is competitive. Highly recommended if you're looking for a fun and super cool sporting activity!

Great medieval fencing club! My son loves going there! The club has a human-sized atmosphere and a family-like ambiance. We love the extra touch of historic, medieval flare compared to classic fencing. The coaches are very knowledgeable and make learning easy and enjoyable for the children! I highly recommend it.

I've been fencing here for a few years now and really enjoy it. Tony is a great teacher who is eager to work with students of different skill levels and challenges. I highly recommend the class to anyone!

I really enjoyed taking fencing (HEMA) classes here with my daughter. Initially we just wanted to take a few lessons to learn how to handle a rapier safely when we go to a Ren Fair, but we ended up taking classes for more than a year. This was a fun way to introduce some self-defense training to my pre-teen, learn some history, and just have a lot fun. I recommend this place for its good safety practices, lots of equipment, very friendly members of the club, and Tony's enormous knowledge and mastery of the domain.

Tony is an awesome instructor, teaching both how to fight and the theory behind the attacks. He keeps it just challenging enough so that I push myself, but goes at a pace where I don’t get overwhelmed. I haven’t attended the classes for a year yet, but already feel like I learned so much.
