About Knight Life Sword Fighting Academy in Tracy, CA
For over two decades, Mr. Allan Gagner has been honing his craft of using and working with weapons.

He applied, and within three years, he was part of the Highland Mercenaries. As part of the group, Allan trained intensely for eight hours a day, seven days a week, in order to perfect his skills. The troupe traveled the length and breadth of California, performing at Renaissance fairs, Celtic fairs, and even birthday parties and weddings. Allan quickly rose up the ranks and eventually became the lead fight coordinator, making the performances as realistic as possible.
