Life during medieval times might have been grubby, brutal and plague-ridden, but give them their due - they knew how to have fun! And so will you as you become a real jousting knight during this day of old fashioned antics.ÃÂ You'll start off with a riding assessment, an overview of the equipment and an introduction to the history of jousting. Then you'll take part in the various activities on and off your horse, all originally rooted in learning the art of war, including neck reining and learning how to use a flag, lance and shield.ÃÂ Then practice your lance on the formidable quintaine, man shaped spinning target and collect rings off the tilt. After lunch you'll learn a choreographed sword fight sequence, including broad sword or quarterstaff fighting, putting all you've learnt into action during a tournament.ÃÂ The day will end with the presentation of certificates, after which you can ride off into the sunset to find a few dragons to slay!
