    New to the forums, but not fencing

    Hi everyone. I'm Asia and I'm a recently-turned 21 year old fencer from Jacksonville, FL. I'm currently taking one or two classes at a time at my local community college, as it's very expensive and I have to pay for school on my own.

    I fenced for a few years in high school, but had to take a break to work and save money for a car and college. I've recently started fencing again, but I'm currently torn on which weapon I want to go with. I'm leaning towards epee, but saber has been sitting in the back of my mind since I started.

    So, hello!

    Enough said, I think you made your choice (says the epeeist)!

    Ahh, perhaps I have then! Though, I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to experiment with saber a few times. Just to say I did!

    I do love epee, though!
