Hi,

The day has come — HEMA MANUAL is now live on Kickstarter 🚀⚔️

We’re really excited to finally share this project with the community.

If you believe this project brings value to the HEMA community, we would truly appreciate you sharing it within your network, your club, or with fellow practitioners. 🤝

Thank you for your support — it genuinely means a lot to us.

Let’s bring HEMA MANUAL to life together.

A practical guide to modern HEMA — sources, weapons, equipment standards, and the structure of the contemporary HEMA community.

🚀 After the success of HEMA DECK, we’re starting something NEW! ⚔️📚

Over the past few years, while training, assembling equipment, and actively participating in the HEMA community, one thing became clear: There are excellent historical sources. There are experienced instructors. There are many interpretations.

But there is no single, structured guide explaining modern HEMA as it exists today.

That's why we decided to create HEMA MANUAL.

It is not a techniques book. It is not a historical treatise.

It is a structured guide to understanding modern HEMA — its equipment standards, terminology, training realities, and community structure.

Our goal is not only to organize knowledge, but to support the long-term growth of HEMA as a living culture — and to make it easier for new generations of practitioners to enter the community with clarity and confidence.

A book we were looking for when we started.

The Kickstarter pre-launch page is now live.
