Current Term - Military Sabre

We’re teaching military sabre from January to June 2025. Military sabre is a one-handed cutting weapon, primarily used on the battlefield throughout the 19th century. The basics can be picked up easily, but mastery takes time and practice! Join us in class and explore this powerful weapon of war. For more details, visit our weapons page.
