Hey! are you me?
I've contacted my local club who are starting lessons in January and was
considering whether to post to this group under the heading 'Is fencing
for me?'.
I'm overweight and in my late 40's and looking for an indoor form of non-
team based excersize that isn't a gym!
The thing that I'm concerned about is the upfront cost of ten lessons,
before I know whether I'll enjoy the gig!
(I know you are all enthusiasts - so I know the answer I'll probably
get!)
