Me too, but my tastes run a bit differently from the norm. The class I'm taking is modern Olympic fencing, but what I really want to learn is late medieval German longsword! Much more interesting. Aprox. 45" long two handed swords weighing in at about 3 or 4 lbs, and FAST! Not the slow, heavy, clumsy, hacking, skill-less fighting so cherished in the popular misconception of medieval fighting. There are groups that practice it, but not near me
