About Adelaide Sword Academy
Adelaide Sword Academy in St Agnes offers something genuinely different on the local fitness scene: Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA), where members learn the art of sword fighting while building real strength, coordination and fitness. Now operating from its own dedicated home, the academy has the space to run regular classes and host tournaments, giving students a clear pathway from first lesson to competition.
Classes run five days a week across two Adelaide locations and cover a range of styles including longsword and single sword, with dedicated kids' classes, women's classes and theatrical sword work. The structured, well-organised lessons make the discipline approachable for complete beginners, while the supportive instructors create an environment where students feel comfortable learning a brand-new skill alongside getting fitter.
What sets the academy apart, according to members, is its strong sense of community and the quality of both teaching and equipment. Newcomers regularly describe trying a class, immediately committing to a full term, and bringing friends along to share the experience. For anyone in the north-eastern suburbs looking to improve their fitness, learn a unique martial art and join a welcoming community, Adelaide Sword Academy is well worth a visit.
