Scott has been teaching medieval swordsmanship to children for 17 years. He has taught classes at Extended Day Programs, summer camps, Cub Scout meetings, Science Fiction conventions, and Renaissance fairs. He provides all the equipment, including fencing masks and foam swords.
Children will be handed safe, foam swords and taught how to use them responsibly and safely. Students will receive instruction in medieval martial arts, as documented by medieval and renaissance masters such as Johannes Lichtenauer, Fiore dei Liberi, and Joachim Meyer. The class includes running, stretching, reading medieval manuscripts, drills and sparring. All safety equipment will be provided to the students.
