Gladiator fight (Collegium Gladiatorium)

Collegium Gladiatorium Cultural Society and Traditional Fighting Club

WWW:GLADIATOR:HU

Our organization, the Collegium Gladiatorium Cultural Society and Traditional Fighting Club has been established to direct attention to the culture and history of the once-prospering ancient Roman Empire by performing gladiatorial fights as spectacular shows. Our ways proved to be highly effective: the number of our members nowadays exceeds 50 as contrasted to the original six. Our main objective is to reconstruct the ancient gladiatorial games alongside with the everyday lives of gladiators and present it to the public in its most authentic form. Hence the authenticity of the weapons armour and props as well as that of the duels and battles at the performances is considered to be of utmost importance. We are convinced that gladiatorial tactics, similarly to Asian combat sports, belongs to the field of martial arts. For this reason, in the spring of 1994 we decided on founding the Ludus Magnus Fighters` College, based exclusively on thorough research of the ancient model, to instruct and train gladiators for the present time. The members of our society can learn how to prepare different weapons and armour and how to fight with them on regular trainings. We also hold international summer training camps in every August from 1995 on. Those who attend the camps can familiarize with the culture, art and philosophy of the ancient Roman times as well as develop their mastery of the weapons. Our membership includes people from the widest ranges of society. Many of them are university students but there are doctors, engineers, firemen, cooks, computer programmers and restorers as well.
The society works without sponsorship or external backers. The necessary financial resources are gained through our performances and are almost immediately ploughed back to provide our members decent equipment.

@NinjaStifler No. I just joined them and they are a non-proft organisation. They all have jobs, (or they are stundents) and most of the money earned with their performances is spent on new equipment.
