Hey, Vatheon - lend me your ears a minute.
[He gives a short pause and then nods, once he's certain he's got the attention of a few people.]
These curses, huh? Vatheon's usually pretty safe except for those things and there isn't much we can do about that, huh? I know, I know - it's inconvenient but it's all part of living in this here bubble.
My friend, Ken, was spearheading- [He pauses as he says the word, smile breaking across his expression.] Heh... [He shakes his head, smile still present as he speaks] Ken was in charge of this project but it looks like it's fizzled out after he left. So I'm going to take up the gauntlet and pick up where he's left off.
Is anyone interested in learning how to fight? Like I said, curses seem to be our main threat here but you never know when you might need to defend yourself. I'm a boxer, so I can teach you anything you need to know about some basic hand to hand fighting or just be someone to spar with if you already have the small stuff down.
Anyone have any other skills? Spearfighting, archery? Swordsmanship? Maybe we can coordinate a whole training committee, for anyone looking to learn how to protect themselves? What do you guys thinks?

I've never used a spear, although I have used a halberd. A scythe is used for long-range slashing, but the pole is good for blocking or bludgeoning; I used the halberd the same way. I guess the theory is the same in the long stick with a blade at the end of it way.
...Well, except with a spear you can't block someone from backing up while you punch them.
[True story.]

I'm putting you down as being in charge of pole arms... Think you could teach the basics in that?

I'll do my best, captain! My name is Maka Albarn, I look forward to working with you.
You'll have to teach me a bit about boxing, too. I have to admit my hand to hand isn't very refined.

Fight ClubDefense Training underway now. He didn't expect this many volunteers, after all.]Welcome aboard, Albarn. It's good to have you. My name's Akihiko Sanada, so don't worry about formalities. When this kicks off, we'll just be two people trading skills.
