VBHF is a non-profit dedicated to the research and practice of Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA) as recorded in texts written by practitioners and masters of the time. Through a combination of academic study, technical practice, and sparring, we seek to recreate an effective style of combat consistent with historical practices.
VBHF is wholly dedicated to ensuring that members are enjoying themselves in their pursuit of the art. We seek to achieve this through clear and concise instruction, fun and engaging practice material, and individualized practice pacing. Members are welcome to be as dedicated or as casual as they wish to be.
VBHF strongly believes that students should be comfortable to express dissenting opinion in the interpretation of technique and exercise practice. Constructive criticism is welcome as a helpful mechanism for improving student experience.
