What does a HEMA stand for? ›

“HEMA” is an acronym for “historical European martial arts”, which are the martial traditions from Europe's history. This activity is also sometimes called “historical fencing” or “WMA” (short for “Western martial arts”).

Although the main purpose of HEMA is to restore martial arts from the middle ages, some recent arts are touched upon as well. Some main martial arts that are the focus of HEMA training include; Bartitsu, Ringen, Glima, Destreza, German Fencing, Canne de Combat, the English Longsword School, and Bataireacht.

Our products are made in many different places, from T-shirts in Asia to cream slices in the Netherlands. Wherever we have production locations, we ensure good working conditions.

The Hema are a Bantu ethnic group, related to the Banyoro, Batooro, Bakiga, Basongora, Bahororo, Baruuli and Banyankore. They were historically pastoralists and migrated into Ituri from modern-day Uganda in the early 19th century, making them one of the last groups to settle in the region.

HEMA, a light-curing monomer commonly found in gel nail polish, is also known as Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate or 2-hydroxyethyl Methacrylate. When HEMA is polymerised under UV/LED light, gel nails become hardened and shiny. HEMA is also used in other industries, such as medicine and dentistry.
