OK, here goes

Hi all, I had written in last week about taking up this sport. Both my kids have been fencing since May, and I have been flirting with the idea of fencing myself. Thanks to all the words of encouragement guys...tomorrow I will take my very first fencing lesson. I am a bit nervous, but excited as well. Wish me luck!

Way to go, good luck! My daughter got me to go to my first lesson, and now I spend the whole week waiting for Thursdays :-D

Please let us know how your first lesson went.

Maybe you can get your mom to fence too. Sure why not. I love going to work and hearing about everybody and their grandmas fencing too.
