The Noble Science Academy is Nevada's premier sword-fighting school. All practices are held at our dedicated facility on Glen Carran in Sparks.

Our main focus is on German and Italian Longsword, Rapier, Sword & Buckler, Scottish Broadsword, Abrazare (the unarmed martial art of Renaissance Italy), and Scottish Backhold Wrestling. If you’re interested in another European weapon or system, come join us, and we’ll do our best to support your study of it. Our primary study group is located in Northern Nevada (serving both Reno and Sparks), tho

Remember to spend some time to rest your mind as well as your body after training!

This is important to allow your mind to reset and refresh itself and be ready again for the future.

Battle Born V is in the books! Thank you to everyone who volunteered!

Thank you to everyone who attended Battle Born V this weekend! We believe it was our best event yet!

Some statistics:
- We had 0 injuries (again!)
- We had competitors from 10 states and 2 countries
- We ran 7 different events
- We had 16 incredible volunteers and 17 fantastic judges who made the event possible
- We gave away 19 medals, 7 trophies, 29 physical prizes, and over $3,000 in gift certificates
- We ran 55 single-life matches this year, with only 4(!) that had any kind of double or afterblow
- We finished about 30 minutes ahead of schedule both days, even AFTER taking an extra 8 fencers into Eliminations on Sunday
- We ordered 51 In-N-Out burgers for lunch for our volunteers and judges (we provide lunch and snacks for all of them!)
- Some 250 lbs. of swords were used in our tournaments (yes, this is based on actual measured weight!) That's a lot of steel!

For our fencers who are wondering: We submitted results to HEMA Ratings last night.
