The International Swordfighting and Martial Arts Convention has brought together the finest instructors from around the world to teach the best classes in Western Martial Arts for over a decade. In that time many participants have had their first exposure to WMA and many more continue to return and honed their skills. For more details go to theismac.org. The 2010 workshop will be Sept 2nd-6th so come and join us.
Participants can choose from over 50 classes on almost any Western Martial Arts subject. Classes are always offered on the fundamental weapon systems and masters but we also present unique classes such as Carpathian mountain axe, Edwardian Bicycle Self Defense and Germanic Dueling Shields. Please check out our past schedules on the website for a better idea of the extensive variety we offer.
ISMAC will once again be held at the Detroit Metro Airport Westin Hotel. Located at the McNamara terminal, the hotel is a 5 minute walk from the baggage claim for Northwest, Continental, Lufthansa or British Airways/KLM. Other airlines flying into Smith terminal can take a convenient shuttle to the McNamara terminal. It couldnt be easier to get to the ISMAC!
