Hotspurt Scool Of Defence Lance And Penno Chapter venue information

The Hotspur School of Defence pursues the historically accurate study of Europe's traditional fighting arts, most commonly the use of sword during the 15th Century. Our ethos is to research, practice and uphold the teachings and legacy of the original historical masters of defence, according to the principles they recorded for all time. As systems of defence designed explicitly for dealing with life-and-death situations, this is not re-enactment, sport-fencing, live-role-playing or theatrical stage-fighting, although many HSD students do engage in these activities to their credit. Training at the HSD largely follows the methodologies laid down in historical texts, with an emphasis on achieving a solid grounding in the basic footwork and body mechanics before techniques are applied. Scholars will strive to develop the ideal mindset necessary for facing the deadly assault, as espoused by the historical masters, treating each training session as though preparing to face a serious encounter with sharps. We are at heart an 'organic' historical fencing school - no additives, preservatives or artificial colours.

Chapter Master: Bob Brooks, Marshal of the School.
Meets: Wednesdays 20:00 to 21:30:Thursday 20:30 to 10:00 evenings at Spidercise Fitness, Unit B7, Benfield Business Park, Benfield Road, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, NE6 4NQ.
Established in 2011, this chapter's name commemorates the famous encounter between Hotspur and Sir James Douglas in August 1388 outside the city walls. Douglas unseated Percy in a joust with sharp lances, stealing his pennon (flag) as a prize. Percy pursued Douglas to Otterburn, where a bloody battle was then fought.
