[SCA-BMDL] CMU Fighting Schola, Wed 6:30-8:30

[Amy C]

Greetings to those interested in heavy weapons fighting in the Society for
Creative Anachronism.

  We will be hosting a Fighting Schola at Carnegie Mellon, this *Wednesday,
6:30-8:30*.  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).

This week, our King, Sir Isenwulf, will be teaching basics of attack and
defense.  Not only is His Majesty an excellent fighter (he won the crown
tournament to become king), he is also an excellent teacher.  I'm looking
forward to learning more from him, and I hope you can join us!

Location and Directions:
We will be meeting outside at Carnegie Mellon University, between Baker and
Doherty halls, here.<http://maps.google.com/maps?daddr=40.441795,-79.94411&hl=en&sll=40.441607,-79.943696&sspn=0.00207,0.005284&vpsrc=0&mra=mift&mrsp=1&sz=18&t=m&z=18>
