What is HEMA?

HEMA, or Historical European Martial Arts, is a term for Martial Arts practiced by various countries in Europe, usually focused on bladed and pole weapons. Ninth House focuses on German Longsword in the tradition of Joachim Meyer, Rapier in the forms of Destreza and Meyer, and Italian Military and Dueling Saber in the tradition of Luigi Barbesetti. We also occasionally practice manual of English Quarterstaff.
