A peek inside the world of two Duello instructors


A couple of our instructors have been highlighted online in the last week, though in two quite different forums.

Jennifer Landels was asked by Alex Waterhouse-Hayward to do some writing about herself to accompany a beautiful photograph he took of her around the time of the Shakespeare's Rebel event. It's gracefully written and gives you a bit of an insight into the beautiful and complex woman that is the head of our Mounted Combat program. Take a look at Alex's blog post here.

In a more comic but somehow still quite flattering counter-point, instructor Greg Reimer was featured in the web comic Wasted Talent showing of his tangential skills. Very cute and worth a look.
