Reading played host to our latest Sparring morning. Students from far and wide gathered in reading to spar against one another. These sessions are always helpful. There’s only so much time during a lesson to learn a new technique and often the best way to practise it is to incorporate it into sparring.
Our Oxford students met up again today for their regular weekend sparring. Sparring gives them a chance to exchange with students they might not have sparred with before, practise weapons that might not currently be in the training curriculum, as well as get some much needed time to incorporate new techniques and tactics into their swordplay.
It was the last training session of the year tonight in Godalming and the evening was spent sparring. Three students performed their gradings. Congratulations to Abi for reaching Laureando, and to John and Lynette for reaching Spadaccino, our highest grade.
It was Reading’s weekly training night tonight and to celebrate the last session of the year, they held a bring-a-weapon party. All the usual weapons we train were on offer as well as a few unique ones! Rubber duck vs feather duster, anyone?
It was our Reading Chapter’s weekly training tonight, and it was a special night. A number of students went for their grading tonight, having to fight with or against weapons they may not have encountered before. When not supporting them, the rest of the students engaged in an evening of sparring.

Tonight saw our Reading chapter’s regular training night, and students were treated to a sparring session. These sessions give students the opportunity to get some sparring practise in against a range of students with a range of weapons, incorporating the various techniques learnt at training.
Students from our Oxford chapter met up this weekend for some extra sparring. Sparring sessions give students the chance to practise techniques they have learnt in class and work on incorporating them into their personal arsenal of moves, tricks and tactics.
