YOUTH PREPARATORY FENCING CLASSES
Professional Instruction in Foil Fencing FOR AGES 6 - 8
6 Week Courses Available in Harpers Ferry Only.
FAST, FUN, FITNESS!
Kids learn to use the sword, practice sword skills in foil and have a lot of fun becoming fencers.
Your child's development in the elite Sport of Fencing starts here!
A fencer's foundation begins with understanding and mastering basic fencing concepts. Children from the ages of 6 through 8 are still mastering balance, coordination and refining fine motor skills. This 40 minute class, held once per week, on Tuesdays, is designed to prepare your child to think and move as a fencer in a safe environment with age-appropriate instruction.
There are no fencing bouts in Level 1. Students will use our foil swords, wearing protective gear, to learn key fencing skills.
