Just Saying "HI" New to the board, new to fencing, not new to life.
Hi everyone.
I am a 31yr old Georgia Female (and a leftie) that is currently just starting her fencing training. I am immersed in medieval history and grew up wanting to be Zorro.
Alas, I think I will be getting my butt kicked often...lol

Welcome to the "Kicked Butt" Club. I believe I am the president of that one. I started "late" also and am still learning.
This is a great place to ask all those questions you'd feel too stupid to ask your coach.
Welcome to the board and have a great time!

PS, Does the knight part include wisking away the maiden and.....

Array Welcome to the board, it's friendly (by and large).
Remember righties only complain about us lefties cos their jealous.

Ditto to the welcome to the Board! You are merely a youngster and like you we are continuously learning!!!!

Hello!
Turn back! Before it's too late!
You don't want to lose your sanity and end up like us, now.
Wibble wibble. **PING!!** whoop! Potato? -
I am new to fencing also, so I thought I'd ride on "tinasam's" coat tails for a second to say "hi" too. Unlike tinasam, and unfortunately for me, I'm not 31! Many times after class the thought crosses my mind "what were you thinking? at your age? I'm really enjoying the training, so until the stores run out of glucosamine & chondroitin, I'm sticking with it! -
HI Cyclone! Many of us are not 31 anymore...I hit the glucosmine too an d lots of lots of aspirin!

First off-- Already lost my foothold with sanity, ergo thats why I went ahead and said "go for it" on the fencing...
And yes I noticed that ya'll are friendly!
Thanks for the hey...
Oh and DAME, my signature was just the first thing I thought of. Now I have my permanent one. :-)

Array i know what "look" your talking about.. you won't hear back from swordsman.. he is in the process of moving out of state and his computer is already in a box... sorry...
he will be back in about a month though.. -
Were not allowed to have a "lefty haters club" at our club - for some reason we have an extremely high proportion of lefties. Half of our regular saberists are lefies, and at our last epee tournament we had a pool of 4 lefties to only one righty. When you fence lefties all the time it gets to be no big deal. My coach gave me a left handed lesson to me once and it took me a good 15 minutes to realize it. Stanna
