Ongoing Bartitsu class runs 8pm-10pm every Monday and Wednesday and 3pm-5pm every Saturday.

This Week in Bartitsu:

It is bonus week, when there will be no Fight Like Sherlock Holmes beginners. Therefore, we can work on deeper understanding using:

  • Canonical plays (walking stick emphasis)
  • Slow work for complete integration (kick-punch-takedown unarmed versus unarmed/knife/stick)
  • Sparring
  • Requests? Bring questions and suggestions!

Shawn Bullock will be leading this class while Head Instructor David McCormick is at the Fight Directors Canada National Workshop.
