Chinese Sword Arts: Tradition, Training & Travel

March 19 to April 4, 2026

A journey of training, discovery, and shared passion for the sword.

Join us on a two-week exploration of China with Scott M. Rodell, one of the world’s leading voices in Chinese Swordsmanship. For the first time, a non-Chinese teacher has been invited to lead swordsmanship seminars in China itself—an important milestone for everyone who loves and practises these arts.

The tour includes:

Two in-depth swordsmanship seminars in Beijing and Shanghai

Exclusive visits to museum collections and sword museums

A pilgrimage to Longquan, the home of Chinese sword forging, to meet today’s master swordsmiths

Time in Beijing, Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Pingyao, exploring cultural treasures while training in China’s martial heritage

This is more than travel. It’s an immersion into Chinese sword culture, combining practice, tradition, and discovery in a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
