Classical Fencing Demo at UBC

On Tuesday, January 12th, 2016 at 12pm, the Renaissance Fencing Club and Salle Saint-George will be presenting a demonstration of Classical Fencing in the Agora of the AMS Nest.  This is a unique opportunity to observe a tradition that is a descendant of the martial arts of Europe.  A variety of weapons ranging from the Foil to Spear will be demonstrated showing how scientific principles were employed consistently through history to survive serious encounters.  This event will provide a glimpse into the Foundations of Classical Fencing course offered by UBC Recreation on Saturday, January 23, 2016.
