LANCE gets a lot of inspiration from the creativity and badassery of other organizations out there. We share videos between members all the time that are nothing short of amazing, and we thought our blog readers would get a kick out of them too. So, for your viewing pleasure, here are three videos LANCE members have been buzzing about recently!
Yeah, that's what you think it is: MMA-style knight fighting.
M-1 Global started this thing called M-1 Medieval a few years ago featuring knights sporting full armor and gorgeous, manful beards beating the crap out of each other with swords and shields. What started as a bit of a curiosity has emerged as a full-on sports league with rankings and divisions. It looks like M-1 Medieval might be here to stay.
Follow your favorite fighters on the rankings page of the M-1 Global website. Be warned: most of the current fighters are Russian. For now. You can check out more M-1 Medieval fights on YouTube. And do they have a Facebook page? You bet your lion rampant they do!

The Knights of New Jersey
The Knights of New Jersey is a brand spankin' new Renaissance Faire comedy web series, and if you aren't subscribed to them already, you should get on that now.
This series is hilarious for both Renaissance Faire veterans and Mundanes alike. The first episode, both written and directed by Mike Hadley, is a strong start. Seriously, they had us in the first five seconds. We're ready to be delighted by the shiny armor and keen wit well into the foreseeable future.

Team LAMDA
Not sure if you guys know this about LANCE, but stage combat is kinda our thing. With that in mind, we present to you this video from TEAM LAMDA (London Academy of Music & Dramatic Art), an absolute gem-of-a-choreographed fight featuring staff and unarmed combat.
The combatants are smooth and controlled, and the fight itself is well-choreographed, a great mix of simple and specialty moves that had us leaning toward our screen and whooping appreciatively at intervals. It's funny, it's thoughtfully crafted, it's--Are we gushing? We're gushing. Well, what can we say? We're fans!
