Rapier Paperwork
by Lady Gwynneth Featherstone
Come learn about all the different papers used in SCA rapier combat. Coverage will include all forms and paperwork commonly used at events as well as in reporting. This course is aimed at MITs and new marshals, but all are welcome to attend. This course will be worth an administrative signature for eligible MITs.

Intro to SCA Rapier
By Warder Lucien Featherstone

Coverage of basic rules, techniques and equipment. This class is geared toward the new or relatively new fencer. A large question and answer time will be available.

Fencing Lingo for the Beginner
By Lord Talan

To learn and pass on fencing knowledge you must know the language! Learn terms often used in both historic fencing manuals and the SCA.

Warders One-on-One
By Warder Maximilian der Zauberer

Warders will sign up for one or more blocks of time offering 3, 20-minute sessions of individual sparring, instruction and evaluation. Individuals wishing instruction should signup only once to give everyone a chance. You can put your name on the stand-by list in case a slot doesn't get filled by class time.

Overcoming Injury and Illness
By Alendrei Veronese da Venezia

Many a fighter or SCAdian is afflicted with an illness or injury that presents challenges in their life. Join us for tips and advice on overcoming these difficulties, and meet others in your boots for when support is needed. All welcome.

Range Games
by Warder Lucien Featherstone

Class will focus on differing types of ranges as well as techniques and ideas for adjusting and fighting against the range type of another fencer.

Cutting in a Thrusting Game
By Galen o Conaill

When most of us first endeavor to take up a sword, our training regiment is limited to thrust, point control, parry and repost, and oh, by the way, draw cuts are legal too. This class will take it past the ""oh, by the way"" stage. Through this class we will discuss draw cuts in SCA fencing and how to use them, perform them properly for recognition, and defend against them. It is my hope that after this class you will walk away with another tool that you can use to help fill out your fencing tool kit.
Melee 101
By Kata Aragunnrsdottir

This class will start with beginning techniques, but will include some discussion on tactics and command.
No gear is required.
Melee 102
By Kata Aragunnrsdottir

After beginning techniques, Melee 101 will move into practical area for application of newly learned techniques. After this class, take your new knowledge into the constrained front melee!
