School of Chivalric Martial Arts
LEARN MORE
TOURNAMENTS
We have three decade's experience researching and conducting medieval-style feats of arms. But many of our combatants also compete in HEMA.
CHIVALRY
Our students experience chivalry both by reading and by exercising themselves in arms, through the mechanism of renown.
ARMS & ARMOUR
We train with a variety of weapon simulators and protective gear, but we encourage our students to wear authentic shoes, clothing, & armour.

OUR INSTRUCTORS
SSG certifies our instructors following the structured curriculum and proven teaching ability after a comprehensive 2-3 hour oral exam. Junior instructors have a minumum 3 years experience while the senior have an average of 9 years.
CURRICULUM
The SSG's structured approach to training builds solid skills based on Fiore dei Liberi's l'arte d'armizare with the sword in two hands. Taught as a principle-based art, skills transfer readily; combatants have used in in SCA, ACL, and a modern combative.
SSG HISTORY
The SSG grew out of the first "tournament company," the Company of Saint George, in 1999. Since then we've hosted international symposia, tournaments, growing across the U.S. and into Europe. Along the way we've learned a bit!
