fencing



Have you ever used swords before? Sounds dangerous right? Well not anymore! I take fencing and in fencing we use swords. It sounds dangerous but it's really not because you wear fencing gear that protects your body. I like it because it teaches you discipline, balance, coordination, quick reflexes, and last but not least, good sportsmanship!!!

There are three types of swords: Epee, Foil, and Sabre. I chose Foil for of few reasons. Foil is not as heavy as the others. There are more rules with foil, but I like that! And foil is GREAT for beginners! Now if any of you out there want to use swords, just try fencing!
