Fencing and shooting kind of came naturally. From the start, I knew that I had it in me.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I used to do a lot of fencing in the theater and a lot of horse riding in the early days, so I'm used to it in a way. If you're classically trained like I am, it's a little bit like mother's milk to me. I enjoy it.
The studio thought I was crazy to perform all of my own fencing stunts, but I loved it.

So, I took lessons, and I love to shoot now. It's a lot of fun.
I trained in combat, sword fighting, horse riding... It's empowering knowing that I can a break man's nose with my elbow.

Obviously, swimming is my strength, but I'm also good at fencing.
I went to a performing arts high school, we learned Shakespeare, I did 'Fences.' When you train, you can do anything.

I find that fencing and training give me more stamina and help me deal with the craziness of being on the road so much.
