Description

Instructors from Candlewood Fencing will cover the basics of fencing footwork, bladework and bouting tactics. Students will improve their speed, reaction time and fence competitive bouts every day!


Fencing is one of the oldest sports to be featured in the Modern Olympic Games. Drawing its roots from, of course, sword fighting, fencing exists today as a rapidly growing sport that teaches discipline, coordination, athleticism, critical thinking and confidence, all in a fun and incredibly safe environment.


All equipment will be provided. Watch a teaser video here
