Fencing, Netball, and Kickboxing!

This evening me and Christina decided to sign up for trial sessions of fencing, netball, and kickboxing and they were all so much fun! First we had netball which is basically basketball but without dribbling and a backboard. Once someone catches the ball they can't move and they have to pass within three seconds.


I am the one in the red jersey above. I was playing center which means I could go anywhere except in the arcs around the net so I really couldn't score. It was a lot of fun and a few girls from lacrosse were there trying it out so it was fun to play another sport with them. Next we did fencing which was also really great. We learned the "on guard" position and also the lunge and extend motions. We also played "captain says" with fencing moves and I won so I was pretty excited.


I am the one in the shorts and I was fencing against a girl from Germany that I met at the session.


Kickboxing was also really fun and we learned some self defense which I thought was really cool. Me and Christina also got to kick each other which made us laugh a lot. This weekend is the London trip and I couldn't be more excited! I will put up a post on that weekend when we get back!
