If it's <BR>raining/hailing/snowing/tornado or other inhospitable weather condition, the practice will be delayed <BR>until the following Friday.<BR><BR>I should note here that I and my Great Sword had a intimate discussion with <BR>the Weatherman concerning the inhospitable weather we've been having on <BR>Fridays recently. The Weatherman assures me that, even though it may look <BR>threatening at times, it wouldn't actually rain. This means that it will be a <BR>PERFECT Friday to practice Spear!<BR><BR>The weekly spear class will cover the
use of the spear, beginning with the <BR>basics and continuing through advanced team techniques, focusing on melee <BR>combat. Note that this isn't a Fighter Practice but a Martial Arts class; if <BR>you've taken any martial arts before you will be familiar with the class <BR>structure. Class will begin promptly at 6 p.m., with warm-ups followed by basics <BR>including footwork and use of the spear both right and left handed (you WILL be <BR>able to use a spear with either hand by the end of the classes), leading to <BR>advanced techniques of two or more spears working as a team.<BR><BR>Spear Class, Fridays, 6 p.m. to approximately 8 p.m.; Bring armour and spear <BR>if you have them, but the are not necessary to take the class. This class <BR>is open to ALL who wish to attend, but is VERY beginner friendly.<BR><BR>Class takes place @ 9006 Simpson Lane, Clinton, MD. Take your best route to <BR>I-495 around DC. Take exit 7A (Route 5 South) to Waldorf. After 5 miles, <BR>take the
Woodyard Road exit, staying to the left on the exit ramp, so that you <BR>turn left on to Woodyard. At the first light, turn right onto Simpson Lane. <BR>Simpson Lane will curve back the way you came, then veer to the left; <BR>follow it around the curve approximately a quarter of a mile. 9006 is on the <BR>left, white 2 story Cape Cod with a screened front porch. The driveway can hold <BR>8 cars if everyone is very friendly, but if that is filled, there is an empty <BR>field that people may park in that is back a little way and across the road.<BR><BR>If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.<BR><BR>Please note that this class WILL begin promptly at 6 p.m., if you aren't <BR>there, the class will begin without you and you will have to catch up.<BR><BR><BR>YIS,<BR><BR>Lord Frederich Von Teufel<BR>Captain of Spear, Storvik <BR><BR><BR><BR>========================================================================<BR>The Merry Rose Tavern at Cheapside<BR>List Info:
