Moot

Getting Medieval for 30 Years!

20th and 21st August 2022

 

 

This Moot will also be a celebration of The Exiles’ 30th Birthday. The Moot will be hosted by The Exiles Reading this year and we have a packed weekend to share with everyone.

Now that Covid is not such a major concern, though precautions will still be in place, we can get back to a more normal schedule of moot activity.

We have a packed agenda one planned! This years theme is application and situations – so a big step away from classes and a big step into how to apply the system when it would matter. We’re going to give you, and have you participate in, classes which truly showcase how our Art is actually applied in the heat of the moment.

As always, we plan to have an evening get together on the Saturday night with a private area for food and drinks. Instructors will also be giving short addresses to Toast our groups Birthday. The Agenda will have all the details. More details and discussions are available via the FB Event - The Exiles 30th Birthday Moot

If you have been to a Moot before then you know how great they are! If you've never been to one, then now is the time! There is not a one-club event like this anywhere in the UK.

  • Full Weekend Moot and meal - £50
