The Noble Blades
Founded in 1993, The Noble Blades are the resident stage combat troupe of the Reston Community Players (Reston, Virginia) and the area's only professionally trained, community theatre-based fight group. Our activities include classes, workshops, demonstrations, fight choreography and a touring show. The Noble Blades are committed to continuing education about stage combat and its performance in an entertaining, educational, historically accurate and safe manner. As part of the Reston Community Players, we support their commitment to "a level of professionalism rarely aspired to in amateur theatre."

Unarmed combat (fisticuffs)
