We teach a European Medieval Martial Art system in both unarmored and armored. Based on Sir Ronald's 28 years of personnel experience in medieval combat and his new book and style "European Conglomerate" that co insides and integrates the ideas from such masters as Di Grassi, Saviolo, Capo Ferro, Silver, and others. Pupils learn to use a variety of weapons from broad sword to pole weapons. We also teach all the various combinations in their use such as; sword and dagger, sword and cloak, dagger and buckler, sword and shield, shield and spear, and many other. They also learn various grappling techniques and how to apply them in armor and without. Students advance through ranking and shirt coloring based on a revision of the old medieval ranking structure. Our goal is to provide our students with a full knowledge of how to use each weapon system and how it relates to self defense in modern times.
