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).
It deeply saddens me to report the passing of Vincent Malveaux, a member of our fencing community and FDNY Probationary Firefighter.
Instructors work hard to design and teach classes. I am not paid, so if you are able to contribute, please tip and help keep these classes coming!
