We were invited to demonstrate HEMA in The Great Hall Wi******er. It was amazing to fence in such a Historic Building.

Q***r people, both out and still in the closet, have been integral to the development of HEMA from very early days, and have shaped both the community at large and Wiktenauer specifically. Thank you!

June is a month for celebrating our achievements in a world that tried to erase us many times in the 20th century, and that still includes many who want us to disappear or stop being alive.

This year, when the very existence of q***r people in the USA has become even more politicized, when violence is on the rise and q***r lives are being lost, and when trans HEMAists in particular have been targeted by fringe elements who imagine they can remake the HEMA community in the image of their own ideology, our message to trans fencers and to the whole LGBTQ community is this:

We're glad you found your way here, you belong here, and we want to support your journey through historical fencing however we can, in June and every month. Please stay and please thrive.

Help us build amazing new things.

(Sorry I missed the start of pride month, I'm easily distractible.)
