Three hours of training, focusing on 15th century German wrestling (aka Ringen).
Please note that it is a different venue from our usual hall, which means that we have mats!
We will begin with an introduction to falling safely and to rolling out of danger. Then we will look at some of the simple decision-making (Vor/Nach, strong/weak) that you will recognise from longsword fencing, and a handful of wrestling techniques that let you make these decisions.
Then we'll put it together and do some wrestling on each other!
Guests from other clubs are very welcome.

Parking: there is plenty of parking available in the surrounding area, although it would be ideal if you could share a car journey with someone else if at all possible.
Venue rules:
- no outdoor shoes on the mats! (please plan on wearing your socks or going barefoot; if the latter, please make sure your feet are clean and that all your nails are clipped and filed so that you don't slice open a training partner)
- no eating or drinking on the mats (there is space at the side of the hall where you can have water or coffee or suchlike)
- no steel swords on the mats, or anything else that might damage them (we will just be focusing on wrestling for this session, no swords are required)
