The Nebraska Swordfighters Guild (NESG) is a group dedicated to the research, practice and promotion of Historical European Martial Arts; with a primary emphasis in the Italian Longsword as written by Fiore dei Liberi. Founded in 2005, the Guild is a modern school of the knightly arts that seeks to be consistent with the methodology of the ancient European fencing schools. We do this by combining

scholarship and research into the teachings of the historical Masters at Arms with the practical knowledge gained through solo drills, partnered exercises, test-cutting with sharp weapons, fencing with specially-designed blunt weapons, and wrestling. We do not train in a modern sport or theatrical display; techniques are taught in reference to how they were used in real combat. Therefore, the Guild practices with an absolute emphasis on safety, control, competence, and skill at arms. On our website you can find out a great deal more about the martial arts we study on our Tradition page. You will find a list of frequently asked questions on our FAQ, an overview on our Curriculum page, where to find us under Classes, and stay updated on what the NESG is up to on our Blog page. Just be sure to contact us first, to let us know that you would like to observe a class and we’ll arrange a date. For additional information on the NESG please look to our website at:

We’re back from another great Family Gathering. The weekend was full of fun classes with different instructors, a fight night, a prize play that included 2 NESG members becoming scholars of armizare, and some judicial duels to settle only the most important of matters. We are already looking forward to seeing our friends from our larger sword family again next year!
