I attended Scotland’s very first URG HEMA event in October 2025, and took the opportunity to interview the two organisers to gain an insight into the process and goals of this awesome historical fencing Weekender.

URG centred HEMA events, coaching, content and podcasts. Historical European Martial Arts.
