OKay, I thought about this, and since I believe that what a Peer is about is
brining aid to those needed and serving the Crown and Kingdom I will make
you all an offer.
First the pre-amble.
You may or may not be aware, that Earl Sir Duncan owned, operated and taught
in the largest martial arts studios in Southern Arizona prior to our moving
here. His martial arts training spans most of his life. In fact,he was my
teacher which is how we got to know each other.
He taught 5 or more forms in addition to boxing and women's self defense.
He is UFC certified (if you are in the MA community you know that is a very
big deal) and also taught classes for children.
Now here is the offer. This is not an official marshallate offer, although
he is one. This is a Knight to fighers offer.
If your teenager wishes to fight in the SCA, you are welcome to contact us
directly and Duncan has agreed to help train them, and walk them to His
Grace Patrick Michael for authorization when he feels they are field worthy.
Here is the catch.
We expect those taking us up on the offer to be willing to help make his/her
armour, purchse the necessary items to make the stuff needed ( we have a
shop and can do alot of it here) and be here at practices to encourage the
fighter.
To begin training you do not have to be in armour, we have some equipment
here, and I would recommend talking to Duncan before you buy or make stuff
no matter what the case.
You as a parent if you are not coming to fight too are welcome to sit in my
house with the other ladies and sew or watch cartoons or whatever. But we
request the parent stay here during this training.
Duncan's email addy is earlduncan at gmail.com, contact him to make
arrangements for your child directly.
What I will do for my part.
Since I am not adept at pounding rivets or bending metal, I will be happy to
help you and your child make whatever clothing necessary for him/her to
participate on the list field.
Practices are Thursday Nights. They are a working technique practice, not a
war story conference. Please bring your own water bottles and a chair if
you have a portable one.
Tonight is cancelled due to my schedule but next week will continue as
scheduled, contact Duncan in advance if you are coming.
I hope those of you with teens will take advantage of all that is being
offered.
This also gives other in our Barony to get to know us as people, and be
subjected to Duncan's humor. Which is truly only for the brave at heart.
In service to the dream,
Larissa
