Fencing has been practiced for centuries, originally as training for the deadly combat of the duel, later for sport. The sport of fencing is a lightning-fast battle of wits and will, a far cry from the choreographed bouts you see on film or on the stage. Instead of swinging from a chandelier or leaping from balconies, you will see two fencers performing an intense dance on a six-feet-by-40-feet strip. The movement is so fast the touches are scored electrically - more like Star Wars than Errol Flynn.
