Martial Studies

The AHF exists to encourage and preserve the arts of classical and historical fencing. To these ends, the AHF is organizing seminars, lectures, workshops and similar programs, and disseminating knowledge and basic factual material to its membership. To raise public awareness we are hosting exhibitions and demonstrations. The AHF, to the extent practicable, will ensure the availability of qualified masters and instructors in order to teach workshops, etc. We hope to promote the growth of schools and academies both nationally and internationally, but most importantly, we are providing a venue where practitioners and interested parties can unite to foment the growth of the classical and historical fencing community.

An international scholarly association established to foster and develop interest in the study of pre-modern military affairs. Publishes The Journal of Medieval Military History .

Historical weapons and clothing.

The purpose of this journal is to create a "one-stop" collection of papers, articles, submissions and periodicals that pertains to western martial arts (WMA). This journal will also cover historical martial arts including, but not limited to medieval, renaissance and classical martial arts. As this journal evolves, and more submissions begin appearing from various martial disciplines, more refined classification and categorization will evolve to ensure proper and intelligent coverage and sorting of WMA disciplines. The expectation is that submissions will cover both the "martial" and "science" aspect of WMA.
