“I got into fencing through fantasy, I have that in common with a lot of my students. I am therefore very happy to be able to bring them to a kind of signpost, to show them the possibilities that the art of fencing offers. What I enjoy about my work as a lecturer is motivating people, watching them make progress, and seeing how through new horizons they often find new, previously unsuspected interests, such as a love of theatre, staging stage combat and the preparation that goes with it.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
