I'm about to go to a fencing camp in a few days. Just wondering if anyone has been to one before. I'll probably die. Was it okay for any of you?

I've been to a whole bunch, Brown, Brandeise, and my 'local' (though its a strech to call it as such) training camp. I've also done a week long training session with Sergé Golobitsky (pardon my spelling), multiple gold medal Olympiad and debatably the best fencer of our time. Heh, nothing quite as fun as fencing your head off in 100+ degree weather on the third floor of an air-conditioningless building and having a Russian screaming at you to stop rolling your back foot when you lunge or he'll nail it to the floor ^_~

how long is the camp? I've only been to fencing seminars and they aren't too bad so long as you have been exercising well and somewhat used to the amount of work you will be doing...

DarkbloodWyvern how long is the camp? I've only been to fencing seminars and they aren't too bad so long as you have been exercising well and somewhat used to the amount of work you will be doing... It was 7 days. for 6 hours each day. It was actually pretty fun.

I just started competitions a few months ago. sweatdrop
