    Fencing in Paris

    Hello fencers. I'll be visiting Paris on an exchange program for 4 months starting in January. I would love to train, fence (epee) and meet other fencers while I'm there. Any recommendations as to club? Price is of utmost importance - I'm a poor student. Language is also unimportant, as I'm going to immerse myself in French. I'm 20, and was a good fencer in high school, but I haven't really kept up. Still in good shape, but no expert.

    Well, bonjour! I see that this is your first post, so instead of saying that I know where to fencing in Paris, because I don't, I'm going to say:

    Welcome to f.net! I'm really jealous that you get to go to Paris for four months :'( P.s. Français is awesome.

    And nice name. Aldous Huxley ftw.

    Thanks! Realized I may have jumped the gun on asking this as my first post, so I posted a little greeting.

    whiteandbluefencer was a study abroad student in France earlier this year. Not sure if Paris or other.

    Send her a message to see if she can give you some advice.

    Also, at the bottom of this page is a list of similar threads (although some are now quite old). They should provide some assistance as well.
