We had a wonderful time attending this years Frost on the Blade held by Dueling Weapons Academy of Renaissance Fencing. Ended up bringing home 6 medals! We truly thank DWARF for their hard work in offering such a great event year after year, and we look forward to the next one!

At our tournament this weekend we had the pleasure of promoting two of our students to assistant instructors! Byron and Mackenzie will be joining Matt, John, and Jason on the coaching team at NHF. Congratulations to them! ⚔️

We also gave our current assistant instructor Jason a much overdue certificate of achievement for his previous promotion as well!
