Steven and Kara Reich.

NoVA Assalto is an organization based in Northern Virginia with the goal of organizing events and information involving 16th century Bolognese swordsmanship. It is run by Steven Reich, an instructor of The Order of the Seven Hearts.

This site is in the beginning stages, but it will go to provide resources and articles for students and instructors of Bolognese Swordsmanship, including links to other groups who practice this system and the locations of other resources on the internet. Additionally, announcements will be posted regarding products and events which are relevant to practicing this art.

WMA Meetup in Cherry Hill, NJ on October 23, 2010.

We will be teaching Spadone and Montante at an event with Stephen Hick. You can find out more information about this event on the Facebook Page. this is a small event with two classes: The Spadone/Montante class and a cutting class by Michael Edelson. In addition, there will be time for freeplay, followed by a dinner at Famous Dave's BBQ.

Spadone Wasters available from Purpleheart.

Purpleheart armoury now has a Spadone/Montante trainer available. I highly recommend this tool to anyone who wishes to train with the Spadone material of Achille Marozzo or the Iberian Montante material; it is well-made and affordable.
