Youth Classes
Group instruction for beginning and continuing athletes
Do you have a child who’s fascinated with sword fights in movies? Are you looking for a focused compliment to a team sport? We offer kids a chance to learn about fencing in a safe, positive, and inclusive atmosphere.
Fencing can help to improve focus and concentration. The sport helps develop self-confidence and resilience as well as self-control and analytical thinking. The rules of the sport help foster a sense of chivalry and respect among all of the students. Most of all, it’s a lot of fun!
All of our students wear protective equipment and our coaching staff work to ensure that all of our students understand the rules and safety precautions. Our coaches are committed to guiding your child to achieve their goals, whether it be better balance or the Olympic Games. The primary goal of our youth programs is to foster a love for the sport that will continue for a lifetime.
