    your own private salle--if you had unlimited money

    If you had all the money in the world and had a private salle of your own......


    Which fencers )limit 5) would you ask to live in your private dorm and fence in your salle? Which coach(s) would you have living at your private salle and coaching there?

    Pavel Kolobkov, Fabrice Jeannet, Laura Flessel Colovic, Seth Kelsey, and myself. For coaches, I'd take Michael Marx and the Sicard guy.

    Aldo Nadi - for the classical style
    Basil Rathbone - fencing actor - for style and attitude
    Ralph Faulkner (sp)

    I don't want to take anything away from my current club, it's as close to ideal as I think it would likely get for me.
    But, if I had to pick 5 fencers in ADDITION to those who already fence there, I would say:
    Pozdniakov, Ivan Lee, Lukashenko, Covaliu, and Aldo Montano.

    I'm also very happy with the coaches at my club, and don't think I would want to work with a coach different than my current one for a number of reasons. But if we had to pull in some coaches for other people to access if they chose, I think I would go with Gary Copeland, Michael Marx, and either Nazlymov or Korfanty.

    Fencers (living): Kolobkov, Fisher, Fabrice, Guyart, Cassara/Vanni/Golubitsky (would be happy with any of the three and would probably let the foilists decide). As to coaches, I don't know any of the supper high level uber coaches so I would just be going on reputation but I would guess whoever coaches the French team assuming he spoke good english and was easy to work with. Failing that I would probably go with either Copeland or Korfanty, maybe even Beck!
