Any feedback from the clinic (details please)? I want to know if my $300 will be well spent on the Nov. clinic.

i've not been, but i'd say that it would almost definitely be worth it.

Went to the clinic this weekend and enjoyed every minute. There's a review up on my blog if anyone is interested. I can definitely recommend it to those interested in working on their foil or epee skills, whether fencing or coaching. The weekend schedule is especially convenient to adult fencers and those of us who might otherwise find it difficult to attend a week-long training camp. I hope to be able to attend another one in the future!
