It's been a while since I've done any stage combat or historical fencing and it's a better activity then sitting on my couch eating microwave popcorn.
The Orange County Historical Fencing Meetup is a great casual group of (non-thatrical) fencers. They're very friendly and helpful. Their approach is to give the student a strong foundation in the basics rather then just gearing them up and tossing them onto the field. I would encourage anybody with an interest to check it out. Even if they have no prior experience. (Especially if they have no prior experience actually.)

"Hi! Okay so we've been looking around for copies of Sigmund Ringecks Knightly Art of the Longsword. What other books do you all suggest?"

"I think I expected some more formal drilling for footwork and moves, but I enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere. Everybody was very friendly and helpful."
"Where in the park is the meeting? Will it be obvious from the parking lot?"
