About The Guild Academy

Colorado Frontier Fighters keeps alive the ancient practice of HEMA—or Historical European Martial Arts— that helps students develop self-confidence and physical strength as well as dazzling swordsmanship skills. Head instructor Aindreas draws from centuries-old sources and manuals that span a wealth of different combat styles, such as the Fiore's Flos Duellatorum and Talhoffer's Fechtbuch. Equipped with a practice gear under the watchful eye of a seasoned trainer, students build dexterity and muscle tone as they master timeless weapons such as the shortsword and buckler, the dirk, and the spada longa.

We had a splendid time with you in our class last Sunday. You both should visit the excellent HEMA groups in Oklahoma. Fantastic instructors and excellent community. Thanks for the review.

The class was small and we went over several maneuvers with two different swords. It DOES get hot in the room, so I suggest bringing another shirt or hand towel to help combat that during/after. As it is a beginners class, there might be things you already think you know or things that seem simple so you don’t need to pay attention. Don’t do that! It’s all important and if you DO happen to know what you’re doing, be curtious of the other people there because there’s a chance they’ve never done any of it. Very fun experience, 10/10 would do again. Worst part was the drive there and back and the need to get food immediately afterwards...

Thanks for your astute review. Our class sizes do vary but 6 to 10 people is common. One thing we can do is use the large fans in the room but we were concerned about noise drowning out instruction. We also appreciate you saying that what we teach during class is all important. We do our best to be informative and inclusive. As stated you will have 10% off your next classes with is for this review!
