I know many of you faithful followers have been asking "Whats going on with The Symposium?   I haven't seen any updates!"  As Many of you know I have had some family business which took precedence.  However I now have a bit more time and energy to update you all on the event. So here goes . .  .

Instructors:
We have a full slate of instructors and guests.  These include Christoph Amberger, Kevin Côté, Larry Tom, John, (Jay) Glen, Chris Treichel and Victor Markland.  

Classes will include:
Intro Smallsword, Rapier Basics, Anti Rapier Techniques from Liancour & Girard, German Smallsword,  and more!

Rapier vs Smallsword Exercise:
After some elimination rounds we will pit Team Rapier against the Team Smallsword  to determine which really is the better weapon. 


Friday Night Fights:
You asked for more time to free fight so we are planning on having an open floor for participants to get in a little practice time on Friday night. 

Features:
Christoph Amberger has once again generously offered to comb his extensive collection for texts and manuals related to rapiers and smallswords. these will be available for viewing on Sunday. 

Early Bird Rate, $150  will continue through 3/31/2017  then will go up to $200.  

Rapierist are encouraged to come and defend their mistaken contention that size matters!  Smallsworders novice and expert will find a collegial  exchange of new ideas and perspectives to inspire their Smallsword studies.
