I have just been fencing for the first time in my life. Some of my friends are going every week and asked if I wanted to come along. It's quite complicated and I don't think I've quite got the hang of things. A lot of it is going against your natural reflexes, such as not pushing your competitor's sword down but to hit it away to the side instead.

I can definitely recommend it. If only 'cuz you get thigh muscles made of steel from it ;).
