The Bartitsu Club of NYC
Deciding where to go on a first date can be daunting, especially with so many options available in the city. Clubs, restaurants, coffee shops – all are excellent staples of budding romance. But what if you're tired of the same old thing? Throw convention to the wind (with a mean right hook) by taking your date to The Bartitsu Club of New York City.
Particularly ideal for Sherlock fans, The Bartitsu Club of NYC offers seminars and monthly training sessions in one of the most unique self-defense techniques in the world. Known as “the gentleman's art of self-defense,” Bartitsu is a suitable fighting method for people of all fitness levels and incorporates everyday accessories like jackets and walking sticks into the art of self-defense. Its exciting Victorian history and invigorating physical practice guarantee fun for couples of all kinds. Besides, what better way to tell someone you're into them than by spiritedly poking at them with an umbrella?
Of course, club is also a wonderful place for singles. Drop by for some educational exercise by yourself or with friends, engage in exciting historical discussion, learn a useful skill, then top off the night with a Sherlock Holmes movie marathon.
