These classes are suitable for children and teens, boys and girls who have never experienced fencing before and those with some basic fencing knowledge.

The classes are run by highly experienced coaches, who teach kids about fencing in a lovely and fun atmosphere. Each class is taught using plenty of games to improve speed and coordination and develop specific fencing skills and tactical thinking. Kids learn fencing blade work and footwork, rules of courtesy during a fencing bout, and refereeing skills while doing plenty of sword fighting! Children can participate in various competitions for their club, school, and maybe even the country. Our coaches, all of whom have international competitive experience, are always there to help and motivate!
