To speed up the learning curve, we each took one of
the styles to workshop exclusively. Blackout ( in
grey) as well as two other members are working on the
Two Hand Low system and Richtor (white), likes the
Two Hand High style. Im (in Black) sticking with the
One Third Grip.

Hello Folks,
Just wanted to say hi and let everyone know that my friend brought some
hurleys and sliters back from Ireland for the kids and me. What a good
workout your shick hand get playing this game. Not to mention that I
would hate to be hit by one of these sticks. But the boys love it and it
is a quick way to improve eye/hand/stick coordination. Great fun and
will certainly help your stick fighting training.

We have been trying a more traditional style as of late using the one third grip
as well
It sure is a lot of fun
Here is a good short clip from last nights practice , I'm in black
We will be putting some of the crazier ones on our website. ( Lots of bruises)
http://members.shaw.ca/johns1010/long1.html
I'm sure it's all well and good as a form of excersize or "honing mind and
body"....I just hate in when people try to pass their art off as an
"authentic" fighty/spirity/ancient thingy.
Mark, the Duct Tape Warrior
PS: hmm....an ironic statement coming from a guy who practises an ancient
fighty thingy and yet is named after duct tape.....
Trust me STAV has a very bad reputation among the WMA. Has something to do with
applying akido concepts while forcing stances based only superfically on the old
runic writing. Now this is based on what i have heard from senior WMA
practioners. A member of the Quarterstaff1 group was trying to apply it to thier
fighting and found it just about unworkable.

Graham Butcher & Hugh Long would like to announce the official launch
of "Ice & Fire U.S.A." Stav (Northern European Mind-Body-Spirit System)
website http://www.stav-usa.com
As many of you may, or may not know, Stav is the authentic Northern
European Mind-Body-Sprirt System (kind of like Western Tai-Chi in some
aspects)
It incorporates Rune Stances, Martial Arts - using unarmed combat and
historical European Weapons such as the staff, battle axe, spear, and
long-sword. It also encompasses health and healing techniques,
meditation & herb & rune lore.
Ice & Fire U.S.A. will provide:
· A Minimum of 2 seminar opportunities annually in the USA with Graham
Butcher or other senior Stav Instructor
· A Members only section on the website (Ice & Fire USA or UK) with
access to exclusive content such as: extended video clips of weapons
drills, rune stances etc. Online PDF's of Stav Manuals and much more
· Rich articles on Stav & related topics
· Relevant source materials such as the Eddas
· Topical Discussion Forums – for the Global Stav community (can be
put inside a frame on any Stav site so that we all see and use the
same forum – contact hugh@... for details)
· Live Chat facility – get online and chat with other Stav
folks…schedule a meeting and chat if you like.
· Distance Learning Guidelines & Support material including video clips
o Recognizing that in North America our members may be highly
distributed, we have started putting together guielines and material
to support the remote study of Stav until a student can attend a class
and/or seminar, and to act as a reference for others.
· A Wyrd Blog – regular updates via our blog
· Stav Books and Merchandise for sale to members & the general public
(mugs, t-shirts etc.)
Please read on below for an introduction by our Master Instructor
Graham Butcher.
Welcome to the Ice and Fire U.S.A. Stav website.
My name is Graham Butcher and I have been a student of Stav under Ivar
Hafskjold since 1991. In 1996 I moved from Yorkshire in the UK to
Oxford where I established a Stav Hov and began teaching students of
my own. With the assistance of my students we began to develop ways of
learning and practicing the essential knowledge and principles of the
Stav tradition. This has developed steadily over the past 9 years and
my group now has around 60 members, several of whom are now able to
teach Stav in their own right.
We organize regular courses and weekly classes in the U.K., where we
attempt to teach, and encourage the practice of, as many aspects of
Stav as possible. A large proportion of the training we offer is
martial arts based since this provides a good frame work for regular
teaching and practice of Stav. It also provides a dynamic way of
exploring and testing our understanding of the principles of Stav.
Training in all aspects of Stav is covered in our yearly cycle of
training courses held in the South of the UK. I also have long
established students in Germany whom I visit to teach and train with
on a regular basis.
Three years ago we set up Ice and Fire U.K. in order to better
organize and manage the teaching and collective practice of Stav. In
October 2005 I made my first trip to Virginia USA at the invitation of
Hugh Long and others who had for a while been interested in Stav but
not yet been able to begin training. We held a weekend course and I
also gave as much private tuition as there was time for. We decided
that we could begin the promotion and teaching of Stav in Virginia in
a systematic and organized way. To this end we agreed on the following:
· We would set up Ice and Fire USA as a sister organization to my UK
based Ice and Fire group
· We would establish a USA based website to promote Stav in Virginia.
This website will also provide links to other Stav groups and teachers
active in the USA.
· Hugh would hold Stav training sessions at his home and teach to the
level of his current expertise. At the present this covers the
stances, staff exercises and two person training drills up to the Karl
level.
· I will travel to Virginia to teach at least twice a year. The next
course will be in April 2006
If you think Stav may be the path you have been looking for then I look
forward to meeting you at our next training course.
Graham Butcher October 2005
Thanks in advance for your support!
The Ice & Fire U.S.A. Team
I see The Dog Brothers as just another faction. When I
said lure them out ,I meant I was hoping they would
come because it was not too too far for them to
travel. They look like take what they do seriously so
I want to fight them. That's the whole point of having
a faction fight.
Before we invite anyone we should have an event to
invite them to. I will contact whoever I can to see if
there is any interest out there.

I Know what you are trying to say Tony, and that might
be the easiest solution, however the idea is to have
our own thing.
Perhaps there will not be enough interest to pull it
off as a Stickfighting thing exclusivly.Then I think
your suggestion is the best idea. I guess the question
is ," How much interest is there by people who can
afford and are willing to attend.? " Im not sure
the"Build it and they will come" addage applies here.
I would like to see it , not as an East OR West
thing, but as a stickfighting thing, East and West.

How about attaching the Faction Fight to an established stick fighting
get-together, or one of the major WMA events? Big advantages in terms of
logistics, etc. if someone else is dealing with all the accommodation, rent,

Ken,
Yes, yes it does.
It also sounds like a good idea, for the same reasons you point out. Let me add
that it is also
the convention/Expo capitol of the country. I believe that the single biggest MA
trade show is
hosted there as well, so I know they have the facilities.
So that is one idea....

I thought about Las Vegas for different reasons,
mainly the availability of small venues for sporting
events. The distance for the Easterners was in my
opinion too far. But you are right airfare to Vegas is
very cheap.

Gents,
As Marc pointed out to me, we have a database built into the bata site.
I have taken the liberty
of creating one to aid in establishing the best location for the Expo. My
thoughts are as follows, we can figure out the either best, from an accomodation
stand point or from a location stand point, or , hell,
mayhap fate wll smile on us and a stickfighting millionaire hotel owner will
hear about it and put us all
up.
At any rate, I went and gave my info to start the ball rolling.
Thanks for the idea Marc.

We have a lottery tonight in Canada for 40 million
dollars CDN (34 million U.S,) ken so keep your fingers
crossed. I just bought 4 tickets . The odds are a mere
1/ 14,000,000.
Keep in mnd that this is almost two years away so
there will be lots of time to get our respective shit
together.
The reason I suggested Colorado is to lure the Dog
Brothers out.
I 'm hoping that there is enough time to get the La
Canne guys from France to come as well.
There is no Question that some sort of competitive
system must be in place. that is the easy part .

I was thinking that we should all work together
and<BR>
have a Stickfighting Expo somewhere. Aim for 2007
so<BR>
as to give people time to save and prepare. A good
old<BR>
gathering of the factions .<BR>
We could hold it somewhere central so it's not too
far<BR>
for any one person. Invite absolutley everyone, and
I<BR>
mean everyone.<BR>
Sort of a "cross the board" thing John, all styles of
WMA?
Could be VERY interesting.
Any visionaries out there?<BR>
Not since the 60s. :-)
