The Empire	Posted: 4pm, 24th Jan 2012
The Empire Stage Combat Workshop 2012 will be taking place over the weekend of 3rd-4th March. Our weekend workshops are open to all levels of experience and ability - classes cater for the complete beginner right through to the advanced actor-combatant. Traditionally, BASSC weekend workshops combine our familiar syllabus weapons and the 'road less travelled' - weapon systems, styles and techniques that you won't find on our regular courses. Classes at previous weekend workshops have included Smallsword vs Bowie Knife, Falls and Rolls, Dagger and Tankard, Massed battle for camera, Victorian Walking Cane, Big Weapons for Small People and, yes, even Lighsabre.... Full details of Classes and Teachers at this year's Empire Workshop will be posted as soon as they are confirmed. You can book a place by using the registration form on the BASSC website: website or for more details contact Rob Leonard, Workshop Co-ordinator, at robleonard@bassc.org or on 07989 670186
