    Just Started Fencing

    Hi! I just had my first fencing class yesterday and I am already in love with this elequant sport! I simply joined this site to meet others who are new to fencing so that we might share words of encouragement and our common love for the finesse this sport requires!

    Hoping for feedback,
    WouldBe

    A righty...but the Foil feels natural in both my hands so I'll be training to use both.

    Fun sport, really try to stick with it. 90% of the people who try it don't continue which is a shame.

    And then there are the select few who stick with it and are completely absorbed. And then they have no other lives. Those select few can be found here.

    Damn right. While my friends go to dance clubs on Friday nights, I spend it with a Foil in my hand, Fencing away my social life. Sad thing is I've never cared.
