Brandon Heslop has been dabbling in the martial arts for 20 years but has focused on the Renaissance martial arts since he discovered them eight years ago. In his training in the European sword, he focuses primarily on the longsword, but he has an abiding interest in sword and buckler, dagger and spear as well. He and Bradak founded the Dragons Tail School of Defense.
Benjamin Glen "Casper" Bradak is a life-long martial artist who has been focusing on the martial arts of medieval/Renaissance Europe for about 10 years. He functioned as a senior instructor in the Association for Renaissance Martial Arts and developed its historical unarmed combatives curricula.
