I find that fencing and training give me more stamina and help me deal with the craziness of being on the road so much.
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.
I always love training at crazy times - it's an edge I'm creating over everyone else.
Fencing is a funny sport. Competitive fencing is not really very applicable to the stage world unless you're fighting with a rapier during the Renaissance, you know?
I have a lot of stamina and I have a lot of resilience.
I was into sports and dancing. I ran track. I have a lot of stamina.
I have good stamina and good endurance.
Fencing and shooting kind of came naturally. From the start, I knew that I had it in me.
There's always hurdles. So I just keep moving, just constantly redefining myself. That's how you stay in the race.
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.
