Fencing, the sport of swordsmanship, has been practiced for many centuries. The sport of fencing develops quick thinking, poise, agility and speed, but most importantly, it’s safe and fun. Fencing is a lifetime sport and is often described as ‘chess with muscle’ as the sport requires both physical and mental skills in which the mind must act quickly to meet unforeseen challenges, strategizing to a variety of attacks and defenses. We offer three levels of training for fencing: Level I (Beginner),Level II and Level III (Elite).
