Scottish Games & Festival | Green Cove Springs, FL
Last year we had such a fantastic response that we had to come back!
Join Adrian Paul for a chance to hone your swords skills in one of our four sessions of swordplay, on February 28th. Whether you have never picked up a sword before, or if you are experienced, the sessions will help you with fun trials, basic handling, swing control, attack and defense positions and much more. And don’t worry we are including brand new choreography and techniques so if you came last year you will be sure to get something different this time around.
If you just want to meet Adrian, or take a photo with him, just come along to our booth, where you also find Highlander photos and memorabilia, Sword Experience merchandise and unique items. Don’t miss this chance to meet Duncan Macleod of the Clan Macleod, in the year honoring The Clan Macleod at TheScottish Games & Festival | Green Cove Springs, FL.
*The hour class includes the basics of handling, footwork, sword movement and angles. The 1.5 hour basic class adds in targeting exercises, spatial awareness and partner work.*
