This class introduces students to fencing history and presents sound foundational positions, instills proper movements, and begins teaching correct blade skills. LTF students also get to handle all of the equipment we use when fencing. Most fun of all, LTF students get a chance to Fence during their FIRST class! This class will answer most, if not all, questions that beginners have by introducing the basics and bringing it all together so that by the end of the class, the student WILL KNOW if this is something they'd like to develop, train, and ultimately, compete in - as a personal sport hobby.

S130: Fencing - Ages 12.5+
Fencers, age 12.5 and up, who wish to develop beyond a beginning level will reinforce fundamental skills while focusing on specific elemental drills that are then applied during partner work and sparring. Creative tactical concepts plus hi-intensity intervalic conditioning will be common themes as fencers work to eliminate negative technical issues while instilling dynamic, adaptive methods of attack and defense that ensure success.
Fencers must provide their own equipment.
