Tremonia Fechtschule 2014 und Harnischtreffen

» Tremonia Fechten is an absolutely delightful event I would highly recommend to anyone and everyone, and I think I already have! «

» This event is just so friendly and chill. The organisers obviously try so hard (and succeed) in booking a varied selection of instructors, not just for their skills, but also for their personalities, ensuring they fit the welcoming, fun and inclusive vibes all the attendees have come to expect. Even if you don’t do any of the eclectic mix of workshops or lectures available, this event is worth attending just for the socialising by the firepit or absorbing the atmosphere of a 13th century keep surrounded by woods while you watch everyone else training or doing archery. And if none of that has convinced you why this is in my top 3 favourite HEMA events, they also have freshly made waffles and their own bouncy castle! «

» I must say that im very impressed by Tremonia Fechtschule as an arrangement.
The evenings, which included quite a lot of alcohol and a heavy overweight of men to women in ratio, and I did not see anyone being „that guy“.
Nobody seemed to be have to be moved away, none of the women seemed to be put in awkward situations. […]
The crew behind the event have been actively working with promoting a healthy and inclusive culture for everyone.
Also there were several people who did not drink alcohol and it appeared to me that there was zero peerpresure with regards to alcohol consumption.
In short, if you’re looking for a HEMA event or indeed just a martial art event that is safe, inclusive and friendly regardless of background, culture, skincolor, gender identity or sexuality, I can wholeheartedly recommend Tremonia Fechtschule. «

» I found the staff to be friendly, polite, and professional. They fostered an atmosphere that was relaxed despite the counter-covid restrictions, but also welcoming and inclusive. […] «

» I really enjoyed my time at the event – […] a wonderful venue, a superb theme and atmosphere, and this naturally seems to attract a lovely group of people. «

» Tremonia Fechtschule is one of those events that embody HEMA for me. Events that are very specialised, such as high level tournament, or weapon specific gatherings, are really cool. On the other hand, events that offer the full range of what the historical martial arts have to offer are absolutely great too. Tremonia is fully that: staying in a castle close to Dortmund, following a variety of workshops and lectures, doing tournaments with both longsword and synthetic weapons (you can do some crazy matchups there) and finally sitting down at the camp fire at night. Something that is important for me personally, is that an event has a good balance between activities. There’s few things more annoying than having a full schedule that allows no time for socialising or sparring, and Tremonia Fechtschule thankfully has a good balance in this regard. […] If you’re looking for an event that puts the enjoyment of HEMA first and if you’re looking to see what the German community has to offer, I would definitely recommend going to Tremonia Fechtschule. «
