It's way harder than it looks.
>>175380That's cool.I know it's a very precise & exacting sport, but that's why I'm interested
Fencing???
>>175367Don't dress like people in pic.
Idiot. Your fencing isn't going to do shit when someone pulls out a gun on the streets.
Swinging around a saber will give you gorilla forearms.
>>175393NOT EVERY SPORT NEEDS DIPSHITTED PRACTICALITYWE HAVE FUCKING POLICE YOU CANCER
>>175393...OP here.I have a CCW permit and carry a .357 Magnum Colt Python w/2.5' barrel.Fencing is a sport, blowing your nappy nigger head from your shoulders is something entirely different
>>175393Perhaps they want to learn it for the sport or they are/have been interested in it for a long time. Or maybe they want to learn it for the exercise factor. Just because it's can be considered a martial art doesn't mean they want to learn it to fight with it.

Prepare for sore legs and knees from the lunges. Its fun, and hard to do well.
