This site is a personal collection of regional and national resources for Traditional European Fencing Arts. In particular, this site focuses on resources for reviving older systems from the informed position of living lineages and standardized classical training programs.

While every lineage may not reach back 500 years, multiple generations are still more than enough to have developed a thorough understanding of fencing theory and effective pedagogy not easily attained through isolated practice and experiment. Therefore, these resources can be incredibly useful for any interested practitioner looking for additional incites to round out their educational interests.

Now it is important to note that these are not the only historical or classically billed fencing resources in the Northwest (USA), just a narrowly defined selection of resources this author has personal experience with. However, there are quite a few public bulletin boards and forums for just about any focus you may want to discover. I trust you will find what you are looking for.
