At Academie Duello, we bring the art of the sword into the modern world. Based in Vancouver, we are the world’s largest school of Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA), specializing in programs that inspire mastery, build stronger teams, and create unforgettable experiences.

For organizations, we deliver corporate adventure services that combine swordplay, archery, and axe throwing with powerful lessons in collaboration, communication, and leadership. Whether it’s a team-building retreat, client appreciation event, or conference highlight, our unique approach engages people physically, mentally, and socially in ways no ordinary workshop can.

For individuals, we offer progressive training in Western martial arts—from rapier and longsword to archery and unarmed combat—through structured programs in Vancouver and online. Our award-winning youth camps and academies develop confidence, teamwork, and resilience in the next generation.

Our mission: to help people discover their epic potential, revive the martial traditions of Europe, and make mastery accessible to all.

Discover your path to mastery. Forge stronger teams. Experience history come alive.
