Merlyn Janssen: Archetypes in H.E.M.A 'How to evaluate and define your own progression in H.E.M.A.'

Merlyn Janssen van de Velden (42) Is A Dutch H.E.M.A. instructor who has been developing his skills for more than 21 years. He is a co-founder, instructor and board member of De Zwaardkring since 2001.

In his lecture, he will describe four common archetypes in H.E.M.A. and their relation to each other, and how this knowledge and classification can help you in your own progression. A useful tool for student and instructor alike!

Merlyn's martial arts career started out with Ai-ki-do but soon he became one of the driving forces behind the emerging H.E.M.A scene in the Netherlands. A capable wrestler and swordsman, his true love is the longsword. His main interest is the overlap and interchangeability of techniques from different H.E.M.A. disciplines. He is a history teacher by day, swordsman by night, and frankly all the other times when family life permits it.
