Well, I have never trained in any form of martial art or swordsmanship, but I do have an interest in both. With that in mind, I was wondering if there were any styles that combined the two, or if it's generally one or the other. Basically, if I can, I'd like to start taking lessons, but I'd rather have one class that implements both than one for martial arts and one for swordsmanship, and I find the concept of the two being combined to be fascinating. Please note that I understand that martial arts and sword-fighting are not the glorified things of movies and television (though, to be fair, I'm sure those play a role in my curiosity), but that I have a genuine interest in learning. If there are no styles that fit what I've described, maybe somebody could give me a suggestion as to a style of sword-fighting and a style of martial arts that might benefit from training in both at once, though separately?
