LANCE GUILDS

Some troupes have clubs. LANCE has Guilds. Our Guilds are members of the LANCE community with shared interests who meet independently of LANCE events, rehearsals, or training classes to explore their hobbies with friends. All LANCE Guilds contribute to the LANCE community as a whole, and each Guild is completely open to new members! This is a great way to be apart of LANCE if you don't have an interest in the stage combat or even theater aspects.

BREWING GUILD

GUILDMASTER: AJ HARRETT

The Brewing Guild is a congregation of LANCE members who all enjoy great craft beer and mead! Together we will discuss, analyze, taste, and even make our own fermented beverages! We’ll spend time focusing on the process of creating beers, wines, and means as well as learning about the different styles associated with this craft. At LANCE social events, we will even provide tastings of our hard work!

(The Brewing Guild is strictly for social and not financial gain. Must be 21+ years of age to participate.)

SEWING GUILD

GUILDMISTRESS: 

The Sewing Guild learns costuming techniques and creates costumes together, both for the troupe and just for fun. Whether you're a seasoned seamstress or you've never touched a sewing machine in your life, there's a place for you in our sewing circle! We're here to learn from each other as well as keep each other company while we work, so expect plenty of opportunities to learn sewing techniques and pick up tips along the way.

The Sewing Guild helps other LANCE members create or obtain their own costumes for shows, and contributes to the LANCE costuming collection whenever possible. Most importantly, we're a place for those who are passionate about costuming to share their love of creating. Join us today! 

SMITHING GUILD

GUILDMASTER: MICHAEL CORINELLA

The Smithing Guild comes together to discuss, design, and create weapons, armor, and other related items for camaraderie, learning new skills, creating items for personal enjoyment, and for the benefit of LANCE. We delve into Leatherworking, Chain Maille crafting, Weaponsmithing, and other such projects as we come to them. Some projects may also be in conjunction with the Crafting Guild or the Sewing Guild to increase the awesomeness of what we create together! The Smithing Guild may also assist the Quartermaster with maintenance and repair of LANCE weapons and armor. Any skill level is welcome as we will be teaching, assisting, and learning from one another! ​

CRAFTING GUILD

GUILDMISTRESS: 

The Crafting Guild works on crafts projects together. Our projects include making props for LANCE events, but don't let that scare you. We're all about individuality in this Guild, and you're welcome to work on whatever crafts project you've got going at our meet-ups. From scrapbooking to beading to painting and beyond, we're a place for creatives to inspire one another and cheer each other on! 

FITNESS GUILD

GUILDMASTER: CHARLES HALE

The Fitness Guild is all about maintaining a healthy lifestyle--to better perform with LANCE, of course! Keeping up a fitness routine and healthy diet can be difficult on one's own, so the Fitness Guild is here to provide a community to help LANCE Members stay on track to achieve their fitness goals. We'll work with a wide variety of monthly fitness routines and diet hacks, and our events will include marathons and other fitness activities around the Orlando area!

GAMING GUILD

GUILDMASTER: AJ HARRETT

The Gaming Guild gets together to play board games and card games with friends. Discover new games and enjoy old favorites with friends in a relaxed environment, either at the home of one of the Guild members or at a gaming pub. The Gaming Guild also plans to run a weekly tabletop game. Beginners and connoisseurs welcome!
