I'm looking forward to Tri-Kingdom University on February 6 and 7, 2026. The Kingdoms of Lochac, Drachenwald, and Atlantia will join forces to provide 27 hours of SCA related classes all free and online. I am planning to teach and take classes in each of the three sessions. See https://university.atlantia.sca.org/ for the class schedules and to sign up.
The classes that I will be teaching are:
- Creating SCA classes for YouTube - Feb 7, 2AM EST - class notes, video of previous class
- Italian Longsword for SCA Combat - Feb 7, 10:30AM EST - class notes, video of previous class

I shot around 700 pictures at Pennsic. I broke them into groups and posted an edited subset to Facebook. More of the non-selected and unedited shots were posted to the linked Google Photos albums.

I am teaching sessions of the same class at Pennsic this year.

Creating SCA classes for YouTube - Do you want to share your energy and excitement about your SCA interests beyond your local area? YouTube is an excellent way to do that, even for folks with no plan to become famous social media influencers. This class will discuss planning your video, equipment that you can use, and how YouTube works.

The class slides/notes will be added to this post before the classes are taught so that students may refer to their own copies. The classes will be recorded live and then posted to the Learn Fiore YouTube channel shortly afterward. Links to those recordings will also be added to this post.
