The Prep boys had their first fencing lesson this week and it was great to see them master new stances and take on the challenge of dressing in the protective clothing. They have already learnt the ‘on guard’ position and how to lunge with a sword. Part of trying a completely new club means learning a new skill from scratch, it involves listening and following instructions closely and many hours of practise.
Here is some feedback from two of the boys after their first lesson:
Arya – ‘It was very enjoyable and something everyone should learn’
Samuel – ‘I want to learn all the moves and it is a great way to focus your energy.’
