Sorry for the intrusion, thought your California members might want to know about the Academy of Arms, a new non-profit group formed to expand the presence of historical European martial arts in the Los Angeles area. We initially will be offering instruction in Silver, Italian and German longsword. If you live in the LA area, please visit our website at http://AcademyofArms.com or arrange for a free visit to our indoor training facility. Thank you!

I have moved this topic to the Off-topic Talk forum.

Please note the description for this forum:

"Discussions of general history and other miscellaneous topics relating to arms and armour that do not specifically fit our other forums"

Thank you.
