Episode 17 - Staged and Starting

The HEMA-Cast

Today's episode is going back to meeting more members of the HEMA Community. The past couple of episodes have been more technical in nature, and we're going back towards hearing the community's story with this episode.

Our first interview was recorded at Fechtschule New York with Jonathan "Jazzy" Bucci of Broken Plow Western Martial Arts in Pittsburgh, PA. Jazzy is a partner in Broken Plow, and was just elected to the HEMA alliance governing council as of August 2016. This meeting was recorded before his nomination. For more information about Broken Plow, visit http://pittsburghswordfighters.com/. For tournament Management Inquiries E-mail [e-mail] and for HEMA Alliance related correspondence, email [e-mail]

Our second interview was performed by Nina Cafaro at Longpoint this year. Nina interviewed Gretchen Settle of Maryland Kunst Des Fechtens. Longpoint 2016 was Gretchen's first tournament she participated in. You can find more information about MKDF at http://marylandkdf.com/
