Clubs & Groups

HEMA Ireland acts as an umbrella body for the following HEMA Clubs and Groups. All have instructors who have been assessed by HEMA Ireland, and all HEMA Ireland members follow our Code of Conduct and Policies.

All of our groups have their own joining and recruitment procedures: some accept drop-ins, some run beginners courses on a regular basis, some have permanent foundation classes. They’re always happy to hear from new faces, so the best way of getting involved is to reach out to one of the schools on the links below and say hello!
