Bruises fade. Skills don't

So grab your kit, step back onto the floor, and let's get stuck in.

Sword, axe, and staff — each tells a different story on stage.

This is what training with Battle Ready actually looks like.

Starting with the foundations! No matter what your current level is you can always find a benefit in re-visiting the basics.

-Run through target locations, strikes and parries.

-Build up to training line games that improve flow, reading your partner and telegraphing strike

-Finishing with a switch up of training partners to ensure that all these principles can be followed with every member of the group.

If you want to get started then don't hesitate to get in touch, we offer a wide variety of services.

Safety is the foundation of everything we do.

Stage combat isn’t about hitting harder — it’s about control, distance, and trust.

🛡⚔ We train to perform Safely, Confidently, and Together. ⚔🛡

👬 Part of what makes our sessions is familiarity, the more you practice with a sparring partner the more you can read their tells and techniques. 👭

⚔ Having a safe and repeatable combat style allows us to keep everybody from combatants to spectators safe whilst performing. 🙌

🤺 But most of all, fighting together is the key, when one person isn't feeling confident the other picks up the slack. When you have a story to tell it takes the partnership to tell it effectively. 🎉
