Good Sunday Morning All, This week will add plays/drills and some focus on practice. Have a good one!

Teaching a martial arts, bushcraft camp this week I managed to get in some practice by carving walking sticks.. when the shillelagh weren't enough I taught everyone to make otsuchi..(sledge hammers);and played croquet in the woods.. and practicing flow drills from the class at lunch.

We made it to the weekend! We wish you all have a grand time doing some of the things you have to do and many of the things you want to do. We are planning on creating some training and social media content next Tuesday. We will be diving in a wee deeper into some strikes and parries. We are still looking for a few more members to join us in one of our 2 classrooms. Intro = $30 - NO additional cost after that. Ongoing access and new, updated material added FREE. Intro - Intermediate = $50 - NO additional cost after that. Ongoing access and new, updated material added FREE. - You also get access to our private training space "The Schoolhouse". The Stick Fighting School is part of "Irish Stick Fighting Canada". We are very happy to have you here and look forward to training with you!

Happy Friday! You made it! Someone asked me the other day..."Why do you do Irish Stick Fighting?" That question made me do some reflecting. The easy answer is that I love it and it is a part of my heritage. The bigger answer is not as simple. - Practicing and creating content keeps me focused. It pulls me. - Learning and listening to how your body moves helps me physically (and in a hard to explain way - helps me mentally). - I have done competitive longsword and other HEMA disciplines, medaled and even met Arnold Shwarzenegger twice! Bataireacht - Irish Stick Fighting is something that connects with me on a deeper level. - I love the seeming simplicity of the art. It is not simple but not overly complicated either. It is efficient and brutal at its core. It can also be graceful. - This is one of the BIGGEST reasons... I want to share this art with as many people as possible. The access to a training tool is not prohibitive (like a $600 training longsword lol). We built our SKOOL page for YOU. We would love to have you join us in a Classroom. One time cost and you get to stay in the Classroom, with us, as long as you like. "Keep your stick on the ground and we'll see you at the Standing Stones". Colin
