Hello to all.
I have been fencing going on 5 years now and fence foil and epee. As my signature puts forth, I am another of those evil lefties.
I have fencing to thank for my health. Last November I suffered a stroke (which was a good thing) because as they were mucking about in my head to assess the damage they discovered an aneurysm in the main artery to the brain. I was literally one sneeze away from blowing my brain out. If it had happened during a tournament it would certainly have put a damper on the day. Bad luck that.
However, thanks to my coach, I was back at US nationals fencing (and I use the term loosely) in the Veterans division. I still have some speech issues on occasion and weakness on the right. But I have actually cut out some of my bad habits. I would not necessarily recommend this training regimen.
As a Greybeard late to the sport it still kills me when I am at a tournament and the hotel people ask me if my child is fencing in the tournament.....
