I just wanted to give a little thanks to my coach (Although I don't think he'll read this). I have a lot of things going at school and my parents only wanted me to fence once a week. Although in the beginning, he wanted me to go to two classes a week, my coach is starting to understand that I'm going at a different pace from others in the club. I just had a private lesson with him, and I just felt that he adjusted to my needs and I am so grateful for that. So, thank you coach for understanding me and in return I promise to work my hardest! As a side-note I've started to realise that 30 minutes of fencing is not enough! After the private lesson, I was so excited to do more. I can't wait for my next group class!!!
