.
Is that a real sword?
Yes. The swords we use are close reproductions to what was used when there were real sword fights going on. The only difference is that the ones we use in class are not sharp, and have rubber tips so we don’t actually kill each other.
Is studying at Scatha Combat Guild expensive?
Yes and no. Compared to running? Well, yes. You will need safety equipment like gloves and a mask if you want to do much sparring, plus weapons when you get tired of using the loaners. Compared to hockey? Nope. Plus all you need for your first few classes is yourself and some workout clothes.
Will I get hurt?
You will get bruises, guaranteed. Potentially also scratches, bumps, maybe a sprain. That said, the whole point is that you’re learning how to not get hurt in a fight. We have many years of experience in teaching people how not to get hurt. Between your common sense and our training, you can expect to leave class in one piece.
Is a longsword good defense against a zombie?
Yes, unless you’re in close quarters, in which case we recommend a cutting weapon with a curved blade, such as a cutlass.
