i have been fencing sabre for about 3 weeks ( i fence once a week for 2 hours) and i really enjoy it , i can only suggest you try it as you can always go back to foil or even try epee .
good luck

Killion

Just have fun and enjoy it. Skill will grow from that, in time.

Specific advice? Small steps. Keep your balance. Sit lower. Cut with the fingers, not the arm. Close three. Distance! Do not yell or pump your fist. Wear only white, avoid colored gear and Lexan masks.
