Classes Taught

Intro to SCA Rapier
This class is geared toward complete beginners, but can be adapted for crossovers as well.
Rapier MiT 101
This class covers the entire Marshal in Training process for rapier, start to finish, and earns participants one administration signature.
Rapier Tourneys and How to Run Them
This class is aimed at marshals and any others who wish to act as List Minister for rapier tournaments. It covers the basics of how the most popular tournament formats run, as well as what paperwork/materials are needed to run tourneys and how to fill out pool sheets and brackets.
Intro to Silk Banner Painting
This class is still in the planning stages, but has been offered to one test student. The long version will take students from design to finished product, and will likely take all day. The short version will take students from resist application to finished product, and should take two-three hours. In both versions, students will have a small banner to take home at the end of the class.
Herding Cats: Tips and Tricks to being an Effective Class Coordinator
This class will walk students through the process I use as Class Coordinator. Having done this job for various events over the past several years, I've gained a lot of knowledge I didn't have the first time around, and sharing that knowledge seemed like a good idea.
Painting Heraldic Bling Boxes
This class teaches how to paint a box with their chosen heraldic design. Students will leave with a small box that is, at the very least, in progress.

Acting as the Midrealm's Minister of Lists for the Rapier Champions Tournament at Pennsic 44.
