Taught by Melissa Freilich
Improve your understanding and technique of rapier and dagger using the classic stage combat teaching tool: the hula hoop! We'll focus on using your rapier and dagger in concert and keeping both weapons in front of you. This is a great class if you have very little or a lot of rapier and dagger experience, but it helps to have some.
Actual hula hooping not required.
Class Level: Beginner
Sunday, Jan 25, 2026 @ 10am to 12noon
