Norman began fencing in 1993 and started his own fencing club in 2007. He delights in teaching fencing to people of all ages and skill levels; a sport he truly loves participating in himself. Since he was a youngster, the thought of being a swordfighter was something he could only imagine while watching his heroes play out their fantastic fantasy roles on television and on the big screen. And now, every time he dons his fencing uniform, Norman gets to live out his childhood dreams, even way into adulthood; just one of the things, he surmises, that keeps him mentally, spiritually, and physically young. And what a fun time he has doing so!
