I also fence the epee sword and do aerobics for cardio/coordination...lol I will take my first belt test June 22, kinda a scary thought, but it is like facing a fear, u just gotta do it!!!! i would like to go watch some tournaments in the san antonio area if any of you are aware of any just let me know If you think you can't, then you must. If you must, you will.
iamrushman Posted June 7, 2001 Posted June 7, 2001 hello; dreamer and a very warm welcome to you and yours; good luck on your test and just do as your are trained and you will do well. i have been to san antonio several times and enjoy that city very much. esp. the mercado and the riverwalk. i hope to see your post here frequently for the ladies perspective, and would love to know more about the fencing that you do. welcome and good luck. _________________ rushman 3rd dan wtf/kukkiwon florida [ This Message was edited by: iamrushman on 2001-06-06 22:26 ] rushman (karate forums sensei)3rd dan wtf/kukkiwon"saying nothing...sometimes says the most"--e. dickerson

Lars Posted June 7, 2001 Posted June 7, 2001 It's always scary the first time you have to try something you haven't tried before. Judges looking at you with those eyes with poker faces. Anyway welcome! Lars Østergaard
