Hiya, currently im new to the forum and am hoping to find lots of great advice and stuff to help me out with my fencing skills (and hopefully become less of a disappointment to myself).
see it all started today with our first day of fencing (i took intermediate, figuring i might have more than a fraction of my old skills left in me). now to my dismay i realised that i had pretty much forgotten all of the more intermediate stuff, along with most of my stamina being lost, so class today was pretty bad. i did half of the work and drills that everyone else did (although i would have gladly done more), and was sweating more than i normally do after running 3 miles
now all in all i havent lost all of my skills (says 2-5 end score on someone who has been fencing for 5-6 years to my 1 year and brake).
i hope to improve on my form and fencing skills and view it mainly as a sport for fun (i may get into a couple of tournaments when im older, but right now ive got $40 and still need a foil and mask and...everything).
I fenced in 7th grade for 2 semesters (now in 9th) with my friend and we had lotsa fun, the 2 people i couldnt beat were my friend, and the other is now my girlfriend. after that i took a year off for no real reason (i regret doing that) and am back...probably gonna wear white but whatever.
