Greetings,<br>
<div><br></div> Our Fighting <span class="il">Schola</span> will be
meeting this Wednesday, 6:30-8:30. If
it rains we'll meet at the usual location outside of Baker, and then
go to Porter A18B. This week Bors will be teaching an intro to spear work, as well as talking about melee fighting (teams instead of individuals), and implications of spear fighting in a melee context.<br>
<br>The usual info:<br> We will be hosting a Fighting <span><span><span><span class="il">Schola</span></span></span></span> at Carnegie Mellon, this <b>Wednesday, 6:30-8:30</b>.
I would like to invite anyone interested in learning more about the
basics of fighting to join us (students will have priority in borrowing
loaner armor). Much of the class will be unarmored, so feel free to
come to learn more, even if you are hesitant to hop into armor.
Experienced fighters, I would like to invite you to join us to teach and
spar with newcomers (bring armor, and extra weapons).<br><br>For those not so martially inclined, we also have folks doing fiber arts concurrently with the fighting instruction.<br><br>Location and Directions:<br>We will be meeting outside at Carnegie Mellon University, between Baker and Doherty halls,<a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?daddr=40.441795%2c-79.94411&hl=en&sll=40.441607%2c-79.943696&sspn=0.00207%2c0.005284&vpsrc=0&mra=mift&mrsp=1&sz=18&t=m&z=18" target="_blank"> here.</a> You can park for free on Frew street just after the library (now free) or at Phipps (its closed at that time). <br>
<br>Here is the tentative schedule for future weeks. <br>
