SSCS Casual Combat Classes, Sydney - Wednesday's 6:30pm - 8:30pm. Casuals are a drop-in system and we study a variety of weapons and styles which changes just about every week. These classes are a great way to get started, and get comfortable with weapons before you undertake a Basic Certificate course. Then they are a great way to keep your hand in and improve your skills once you have completed your Basic and are working to the next level. Or just a great fun break from the boring day to day of modern life.
