Willkommen! This Gotham Swords program studies a historical fencing tradition from Augsburg, Germany.
The Augsburg School emphasizes a curriculum of foundational skills and concepts which inform the application of higher order techniques.
The lessons forge a system of fencing that is applicable to Ringen (wrestling), Messer (knives), and Schwert (Longsword).
Tuesday's class was a part of the new Hema Workout and Lecture lineup. We joined Kat Hamilton for an exploration of warming up and cooling down mindfully (and we got really sweaty too!).
