⚔️ History isn't just something you read about, it can be something you experience.

Every swing of the sword, every step, and every technique we practice comes from historical fencing manuals written by masters centuries ago. These aren't movie fight scenes or choreographed performances, they're real martial arts brought back to life.

Whether you're fascinated by knights, duelists, Renaissance history, or simply looking for a unique hobby, there's a place for you at Ascalon Academy.

What an incredible weekend at Kelowna ComiCon!

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by the Ascalon Academy booth to watch a demonstration, ask questions, or step onto the floor and try historical swordsmanship for yourself. It was amazing to meet so many people who share a passion for history, fantasy, martial arts, and, of course... swords!

We'd also like to thank the Kelowna ComiCon organizers for putting together another fantastic event. We're proud to have been a sponsor and vendor this year, and we loved being part of such an enthusiastic community.
