Spada HEMA

Spada HEMA Spada is a Historical European Martial Arts Club. Spada (Italian translation for Sword) was formed in March 2015 in Arbroath, Scotland. Men and women welcome.

Spada is an Historical European Martial Art Club where we base our training on a manual written 600 years ago by The Sword and Martial Arts Master, Fiore dei Liberi. One of the greatest Trainers of Knights in the Middle Ages. Not to forget, we've incorporated the German Master teachings of Joachim Meyer. We practice using the Long Sword, as based in Historical Manuals. We aim to compete in Local a

nd International Competitions. So there is a lot of sparring. To that end, we use Nylon Sword Simulators and wear Protective Gear. Advanced practitioners can practice with Steel Swords, providing they have the correct safety equipment. If anyone is interested in joining, please get in touch! We are based in Edinburgh, Scotland. Enquiries from people over 18 years old as we don't have the facility for children. No previous experience necessary.

Sometimes we put down the swords ⚔️ and we head up the hills instead.
