Hi Fab!

When I have the opportunity to come over. ;)
Seriously, Easter is a bad date for a family father.

> will you be in
> Vienna for the Dreynschlag thing ?

Of course I will! I'm going to teach a (very basic)
beginners class about the nuts and bolts of the German
school (how to stand, walk, cut&thrust, the six 'key
elements', that kind of stuff) and an advanced class
about working from the bind (how the decision-making
process works, how your opponent tells you what to do,
and which techniques you have at your disposal when he
does various things).

Will I see you there?

A quick note for the rest of the pack:

The group Dreynschlag (of whom Werner Fröhlich is also
a member) is hosting an event about the Historical
European Martial Arts from the 30th of October until
the 1st of November.

Further details can be found here (watch the pop-up
window):
http://www.dreynschlag.at/

If you have time to spare and want to enlarge your
knowledge about the arts of our ancestors, you're all
welcome to join us!

Very, very cool. We definitely have to go through this
stuff together. Which brings the time issue back up
again. *g*

Cheers,
