Devis Carli has been studying and practicing HEMA in Sala D’Arme Achille Marozzo since 2008, specializing in Bolognese system of sidesword. He has been teaching in the San Marino branch of the school since 2011.
Devis strongly believes there can be no HEMA without historical fencing treatises, and tries to be as faithful as possible to the sources when teaching.
