Please, I ended up having to miss it due to family obligations ad a trip my wife had to go on. We just couldn't afford both with the rising cost of just about everything so I gave up mine. Bummer I knew a bunch of people there and really looked forward to training with NYHF and Christian Tobler. Oh well there's always next year and I do have my Saturday study group.
Winter is coming

Sorry to hear that.
My younger brother Mike did go with my nephew Zack.
Pros-he learned some techniques and it illuminated some of the ideas and questions he had from Christian Tobler's books.
Cons- almost everyone there had been involved in swordsmanship for years or went with a group. Mike has done neither so he and Zack hung out with the one other non-group beginner, facilities were limited and it rained 2 nights
He said if he goes next year he's going to stay at a hotel, Mike is well beyond party animal stage so he and Zack got no sleep.
I have to make arrangments to go up and practice with him before he forgets what he learned. His phrase not mine.
