SoCal Swords

SoCal Swords is a HEMA (Historical European Martial Arts) club based in Southern California, dedicated to the study and practice of historical sword fighting techniques, with a focus on early German longsword.

The club is committed to advancing HEMA while maintaining a fun and engaging environment for sword enthusiasts. SoCal Swords emphasizes the study of HEMA as a historical martial art rather than just a sporting activity, blending in-depth manual interpretation with practical fighting skills.

At SoCal Swords, students benefit from experienced instructors who excel in tournament competition and historical research. The training program covers effective self-defense, precise attacks, and cutting techniques, all conducted with safety in mind using appropriate gear.

SoCal Swords fosters a vibrant community of HEMA practitioners, welcoming both beginners and experienced fighters to join their sword-loving family.
