Group Lessons:

We are the London Longsword Academy (LLA), one of the biggest Historical Martial Arts fencing clubs in Europe, offering the widest range of disciplines in historical weapons and sword fighting styles. We are currently running 13 group classes every week in our different venues in London (please see class schedule and venues below). At the same time, we are also teaching all our group classes online, for our international audience and for those who cannot travel.

Does that sound like fun? If you would like to train with us, in-person or online, or have any further questions, please send an email here and we’ll get you set up ASAP (ideally get in touch min 2-3 days before your preferred training start date).

No sword (yet)? No problem! We will provide a training weapon for you in our in-person class to get you started. For our online lesson, you can improvise initially and we can give you advice on how.  

Group lesson fees (90mins each):

  • Single class fee: £20 (price incl. VAT), with discounts available for multi-class packages.*
  • Monthly and membership plans: for 1 class per week start from £60 – £72 (price incl. VAT) per month, with discounts available for 3+ classes per week. Please note that monthly/membership plans apply to Monday-Friday classes and do not apply to Saturday Decathlon classes (as these classes use a separate booking system).
  • Walk-in fee: at the door for a single class is £25 per person and we cannot guarantee that there is space or a training weapon for you, so rather please contact us before you show up.*

Note: You can also get a Gift Card voucher for any of our classes or lessons!

To book our Saturday Classes in Decathlon (Canada Water), please book directly via the links in the timetable below. For all other classes just get in touch here. We are looking forward to welcoming you!

Please note there are no group classes on Bank Holidays, and we run a reduced class schedule over the festive season end of December and beginning of January.
