Sport Specific Information

When and where did you begin this sport? She began fencing at age 10.

Why this sport? "It was a pure coincidence. When I was age 10, in addition to school, my mother enrolled me in English classes. As I was quite good at English, I was allowed to take the course with older children. And I had an hour break between two English lessons during which time there was a fencing lesson. That is how I got to know the sport."
