Since 2019, the fans of Historical European Martial Arts ("HEMA") can participate in a specialised Bootcamp:  the Crossing Swords Meeting ("CSM") in Bordeaux.

​​

During one complete week the participants can live their passion with HEMA activities like workshops, training, sparring, tournaments.

​

An ideal occasion not only to improve your HEMA-skills and your fitness level but also to share your experience and knowledge and to make new friends!

​

The CSM offers space for up to 20 participants of all HEMA activities.

​

The participants are invited to organise indoors and outdoors activities on their own initiative.

​

You will find details about the possibilities under "Location".

​

You can register as part of a group, association/club and individually.

​

Bordeaux is easily accessible by plane, by train or by car.
