Introduction
I'm up to learn any kind of martial art, especially those with deep history. Sounds like a great opportunity.
Did you know fencing is a western martial art?

Never heard it put that way, but sounds pretty accurate.

What interested you in fencing?

Just always been something I wanted to try.

What's your favorite fencing movie?

The Count of Monte Cristo comes to mind...

What weapons and styles do you practice - or would like to practice?

I've studied some nunchaku, escrima and Chinese broadsword. Nothing with much piercing/thrusting in the technique.

Have you fenced before? Modern/Olympic or Classical/Historical?

Unfortunately, no. Considering my best friend was president/captain of our college fencing club I really should have.

  •  I loved the anime meetup. I'll definitely be going to the manga meetup too, so I hope to see you there!

    I've started GTO the manga ages ago and then dropped it, but about a few months ago I bought the anime. I started it and want to continue, but unfortunately the DVDs don't work well. :|.

  •  lol, you should have been there! I actually finished the game on Sunday and it was a blast!! I'm playing it for a 2nd time now. It was definitely worth buying a PS3 for. ^^;;
