Study Groups?
Previously, our website contained a list of Cateran Society Study Groups. This list has now been phased out along with the informal structure we used to use. All authorized Cateran Society Broadsword Academy training is being conducted through our official Apprenticeship Program from this point forward.
There are several other practitioners of the Highland Broadsword who are excellent instructors; however, they have their own curriculum and training methods which will differ from ours. Top instructors include Paul Wagner of Sydney, Australia and David Teague of Alaska; both come highly recommended.
If you are in the New York City area, Justin Kirck (jkirck@yahoo.com) is a graduate of the First Level of our Apprenticeship Program and is authorized to teach our system of Regimental Highland Broadsword. Other friends of ours, who can teach you the Highland Broadsword but are not directly affiliated with the Broadsword Academy, include:
