I am teaching a class on Fiore’s system at Emerald Hastilude III, an equestrian focused event, on Aug 31, 2024. The class will give a sampling of plays from across Fiore’s manual including a dagger play, a variety of sword plays, and then some work trying to figure out some of his horseback plays. Because Fiore’s manual describes a consistent system, many of the non-horse plays can be directly adapted for use on horseback when at appropriate range. So, understanding the system is a much better approach than just understanding the 36 horse plates from the manual. The techniques will apply to the SCA’s Rossfechten ruleset which is about mounted sword play. We will probably make a video recording of the class that I will link here once it is ready.
Here are links to various slide sets, videos, and web pages related to the class:
