In his 1798 treatise, Charles Roworth presents instruction on combat with a Broadsword and Saber, as the foundation for his practice of British military infantry swordsmanship. This is believed to be one of the earliest written depictions of British swordsmanship on foot. This class will take elements from all four editions of his writings.

This class will present the foundations of that instruction, including guards, cuts, defenses, moving and various actions on how to put this art into practice. This class will provide useful to both the new practitioner, providing a stable base of fundamentals to build on and explore, as well as the seasoned fencer, to sharpen their fundamentals and further fine tune their actions and movements.

Weekly lesson plans will be released Wednesdays with live group video meetings on Sunday 4-6pm Pacific to check in on how things are going. Students are encouraged to submit videos of their practice so feedback can be provided by the following Tuesday.
