Testimonials

Boston | Corporate Event

I enjoyed attending the fitness session, and learning how to told the Bokken. Since people were from all different levels of fitness, I believe the class should have been broken up by those different levels to make each group more challenging. Perhaps rather than trying to accomplish 3 different sessions in one day, break it down to several days and have a specific focus for each day. Or state what type of fitness level is needed for each of the classes. For an experience Book Now

"If You Could Dance With Fred Astaire, Would You?"

It exceeded my expectations, and I went in with high expectations. Calling it a Experience is exactly what it was. This isn’t a panel at a Con, a seminar,on swords and choreography, or a meet in greet.It was a Experience where you actually learn and perform skills, that you can build on if you choose to. Awesome fun! The Sword Experience is just that an experience, something beyond just meeting my favorite actor.
