It has been 3 centuries since the time of Dumas and Sabatini, but the beauty and romance of this era are still alive. Remember these wonderful films close to many hearts - "Midshipmen", "Three Musketeers"? Artistic fencing is what makes them spectacular and authentic. It's not just swordsmanship, physical training, stage skills, but also a sincere love for the era of knights and beautiful ladies.

Artistic Fencing is what brings this era back to us.

Artistic fencing is a duel staged and brought to perfection, when the masters, getting used to their roles, according to the script and without editing cuts, play the duel as a whole, recreating pictures past days and contractions. The work goes without protection, with strict safety procedures, real fencing techniques and creative acting.

We challenge the virtual life, unloved work, obsession with financial gain.

We want to get rid of the Internet and get a taste of real life, real fight, passion, feel the firmness of the hand and the endurance of the legs!

We want to create our own scripts and let our ideas come to life. We want to positively influence the world around! We want to grow up to full-fledged theatrical productions, where there is a text, acting skills, passion, honor, a sword, nobility!

Artistic fencing is:

  • Physical education;
  • Fencing;
  • Combat acrobatics;
  • Stage combat without weapons;
  • Fundamentals of acting;
  • Historical and cultural heritage;
  • Hobby;
  • Breathtaking theatrical costume show!

Feel like a brave musketeer, a desperate pirate or a cold-blooded aristocrat.

You can...

  • Try on the role of your favorite heroes of books and movies - nobles and musketeers, midshipmen and pirates, heroes and adventurers.
  • Feel the excitement of the fight, the drive of the battle.
  • To join the national and world history
  • Learn to control your body.
  • Learn theatrical techniques and tricks of stage combat and combat acrobatics.

  • we create conditions for the socialization of young people;
  • we develop forms of leisure in accordance with modern world cultural development.

The fencing rally, which united the fighters of the Staritsa, Moscow, Balashikha and Rzhev branches of the Club, ended successfully. Filmed a movie, got invaluable experience!photo in VK

Results of fencing rallies "Summer 2017", 1st and 2nd shifts. Based on the results of the first session, which took place at the end of June 2017, 14 videos were created with their own scenarios. According to the results of the second July shift, there is still one video from the montage above. You can follow the release of the rest in the club's diary in the VK group: https://vk.com/kaf_vysov. We present to your attention several videos with the participation of our students and the head of the art fencing club "Challenge"

Learning fencing just like that is interesting in itself. But it is much more interesting if there is a scope for this art. Someone competes in championships, someone participates in festivals and reconstructions, someone arranges professional performances, and we, for the second summer in a row, find an outlet in the form of amateur filming.
First, we form script ideas, then we write them ourselves, make storyboards, assign props, cameramen, costume designers, assistant directors, make-up artists and, of course, rehearse fights in advance and sort out the psychological state of our characters.
This summer we had 2 shifts of 7 days each. Our plans included such scenarios as "Pretender", "Son of a blacksmith", "Sister's honor", "Do not give up", "Angard", "Letter", "Shadow" and "Ordinary miracle". Most of them are short (5-9 minutes), but there are also longer ones. For most scenarios, there were many who wanted to participate, so sometimes they filmed the same thing, but with different actors in the lead roles.
Started in January 2017 organizational training to fly. Since April, they began to rehearse fights and roles.
From June 26 to July 2, the 1st shift "shot back", and from July 22 to July 28 - the second. Filming took place in Bernovo, Staritsa (Museum of Local Lore, the house of the merchant Filippov, Praskov-Pyatnitskaya Church, the city itself) and in Chukavino (the historical ensemble and the Chukavino Country Complex).
Both children and parents participated in the filming, and with great enthusiasm: there was not a single person for whom there would be no role, or organizational, invaluable application for the film crew. For me, as a stage director, these were two wonderful shifts: my guys from Moscow, Balashikha, Staritsa and Rzhev became wonderful friends and worked well together. The self-imposed production crews have done a great job and I think we've made a good step up from 2016's The Chase.
