Teaching from this

If you run a course, these maps are yours to use. No licence, no fee, no permission needed. A credit and a link is the whole ask.

The offer, stated plainly

Every map on this site can be used in a training course, a manual, a slide deck, or a printed handout. There is no licence to sign and no fee. Cite the site as lashmatrix.org and link to the page you used. That is the entire condition.

How to actually take it

Open any map page and use the Take it with you block. Print the page or save it as PDF, or download that page's diagrams as SVG. No account, no email, no form - the download is built in your own browser and nothing is sent anywhere. Every file carries the address of the page it came from, which is also how the credit stays attached when a slide gets passed on to someone else.

If you need the whole set rather than a page at a time

A packaged set for a course - a whole eye shape, or all one hundred and thirty-five - is the one thing worth asking for by message rather than clicking, because it is worth knowing which academies are teaching from this. Ask through the same door everything else uses. Nothing is withheld if you would rather not: the pages are all open, and a set is only ever the convenience of not saving them one by one.

Why a reference layer helps a school rather than competing with it

A course sells judgement, hands, and correction under pressure. It does not sell the coordinate system, and it never did — the coordinate system was just something each school had to redraw because nobody had published one. A student who arrives already able to read a map is a student you can spend the day correcting instead of orienting. The part that is genuinely yours is the part a diagram cannot carry.

What is deliberately not here, and why that protects you

No absolute lengths, no curl letters, no diameters, no weights. The maps are normalised — proportions, direction, and where the peak sits. A student can read the principle here and still cannot skip your class, because the calibrated numbers and the hands are what your class is.

If your house style disagrees with a map

Then send yours. Any layout that satisfies the geometry has an equal claim to the name, and a disagreement documented beside the original is worth more to a student than a single version presented as settled. It goes up under your name, from your account, and comes down the moment you want it down.

Using these in a course, or want the packaged set? One message is the whole process, and the entry can carry your academy's name beside it.
