Berki András, affectionately known as a „HEMAdinosaur“ due to his long-standing involvement in the community, began his journey in historical fencing back in 2004. His passion started as a pastime with friends, evolving into reenactment, translating treatises, and learning fencing through historical manuals. Since 2017, he has dedicated himself to HEMA as a sport and is now a certified fencing coach.
Throughout his career, Berki has explored various weapons, but his primary focus remains on the longsword. While he humbly admits that he may not be the best swordsman, he is an adept coach and has trained several skilled and successful fencers. Since 2018, he has been refereeing at both national and international HEMA tournaments. In collaboration with Krisztina Nagy and the HEMAtac team, he has gained expertise in tournament organization and officiating. Currently, he is the president of KRViSE, a proactive fencing association with ambitious goals and a strong roster of fencers.
Join us for this opportunity to advance your understanding of HEMA officiating and contribute to raising the standard of tournament refereeing!
