I then took up rapier/sabre fencing--not strictly MA but might as well categorize it such. I've come a long way. I just don't care to get into it with the more arrogant fellow fencers. I have skill, and talent...now if I would have taken a more active role, I'd have been a high ranking member.

My instructor was a practitioner of Shaolin Kung Fu--we've spoken on those things a few times which has lead me to a further path. He likes that I am not arrogant as the others. Unfortunately he moved away to Hawaii.

The group is somewhat on the rocks. I'm not in school now, so there are some problems for me. After a falling out it is getting back together after over a year of time apart. We are reassembling.

The fencers over the region I live in want as many as they can get. So the snobbish people are more rare, thank heavens. I feel somewhat responsible living in the middle of the 2 main areas for competitions to try to keep things going here where I live....continues
