take a fencing class

I want to try this. It looks like so much fun. I’m not very athletic though. Do I need to be athletic to do this? I’m tiny and not very strong.

I have always, ALWAYS wanted to take a fencing class….my entire life! For some reason, it just appeals to me…it seems like such an art form…kind of like dancing…so elegant, and yet, so dangerous in a way (well, I do realize the tips of the “swords” are capped and not really dangerous…but in theory, they are, or at least were…..and that of course is the point). It is just a romantic, elegant thing from the past and I have always wanted to try it. I think I will be good at it for some reason. I am light on my feet….was always a good dancer (a few years of ballet didn’t hurt)...and I have excellent hand/eye coordination. Plus, I’m competitive as shit….. I think I will totally rock at this sport….at least in my own mind….hehe….en garde! :-)
