London Historical Fencing Club

London Historical Fencing Club (LHFC), right in the heart of London, is all about the art of sword fighting. Led by a team passionate about Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA), they offer classes in Longsword, Rapier, Sabre, and Smallsword.

HEMA enthusiasts at LHFC are dedicated to bringing back the lost techniques of European-style sword fighting. They dig into historical sources and treatises to revive these age-old skills.

As a non-profit, member-run club and registered charity, LHFC’s mission is focused on training, scholarship, competition, and tournaments. They cover a wide historical range, providing a robust curriculum for all to learn from.

Inclusivity is a cornerstone of LHFC. They welcome everyone, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, body type, sexual orientation, or social background. They ensure a safe and inclusive space, with accessible training for disabled individuals too.

Whether you're new to fencing or have plenty of experience, LHFC offers a welcoming atmosphere for all fitness levels and martial arts backgrounds. You can train at a pace that suits you, with both slow and fast speed exercises available.

Stay connected with LHFC on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. They also welcome donations to support their cause and have a privacy statement and code of conduct to ensure a respectful community.
