SUMMER CAMP 2008

The sport of fencing has a long and distinguished history dating back hundreds of years. Fencing is one of the original sports from the first Olympic games of modern times in 1896. Today, Olympic-style sport fencing offers participants an excellent physical and mental workout.

All of our camps use group and individual instruction to help participants improve their skills in a fun and supportive setting.

The Beginning Camp is intended for children aged 8-14 with little or no fencing experience. Games and exercises will be used to teach basic fencing, team work, and problem solving skills.

The Foil, Epee and Sabre Camp is a full day training session for experienced fencers aged 8-19. Topics covered will include: Strategy, conditioning, mental preparedness, scorekeeping, refereeing, videotaped bouting, lessons, and equipement repair. Minimum 1 year fencing experience required or consent of coaches.
