Hi!
Online Course progress
As you know I’m working on the Introduction to Historical Martial Arts course, designed to introduce beginners to the historical, martial, and artistic elements of this pursuit. It’s a worthy challenge- in other words, it’s very difficult to get right, but I can’t delegate it to anyone. I’ve cracked the overall structure and the technical side of how it’ll be delivered, so I’m now working on the actual individual components of the course materials.
I’m also about ¾ of the way through re-editing the Complete Medieval Longsword Course, which I’ll be updating soon.
I’ve also given a lot of thought to making these courses more available. I do think that the Mastering the Art of Arms subscription is very good value: over $4500 worth of courses for $45/month. But not everyone wants the “How to Teach” course, or wants all that medieval stuff, or all that rapier stuff. So I’ve created some more options. You can still get everything at $45/month, or you can get a package of Medieval Italian Martial Arts ($27/month); or Medieval German Martial Arts ($23/month); or Renaissance Italian Martial Arts ($23/month). Take a look here:
If there’s some combination of courses that would make sense as a package that I haven’t got listed there please let me know.
Everyone on any of my subscriptions, please send in questions in advance for our Office Hours on June 21st, which will start at 15.00 UK time. I’ll put links to the meeting in the course contents, and send it out by email too.
