Hello,

Martinez Academy of Arms and its guest Raven Arts Institute are pleased to host our third Spanish Martial Arts Weekend. Maestros Ramón Martínez, Jeannette Acosta-Martínez, and James Loregia will again be teaching and presenting the most extensive look at Spanish bladed martial culture at any workshop/seminar to date. This seminar will follow a continuum of the theory from the late 16th century to the end of the 19th and how it was applied or incorporated into the use of other types of weapons. The focus will be the technical choices, which are determined by each specific weapon.
