Learn to Fence! This Beginner camp is open to students of all ages. Students will learn a brief history of the sport, basic rules, safety practices, introductory footwork, and see all 3 weapons the sport of fencing has to offer. Students will have the opportunity to deck themselves out in gear and work with each other and the coaches to experience the excitement firsthand! At the end of this introductory camp, students will be ready to join our group classes, private lessons, and/or our more advanced camps.

Abraham Lincoln said, “Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.”
This camp is meant to help you sharpen your "axe", whether that's a foil, epee, or sabre! It takes the skills and knowledge you've obtained in your classes and lessons and helps to hone your technique. The camp involves conditioning, footwork, and both 3-weapon and weapon-specific instruction. It provides competitive bouting instruction, strategy, and scenarios to help you achieve success on the strip, regardless of your level of competition. All skill levels squire/intermediate through competitive, must be a USFA member (any level) to attend. Guest Coach Jennie Salmon, Head Coach of Temple University Fencing, will attend! |
