This class is a four-week introduction for ages 8 to 15 to the sport of fencing, held at Liberty Lakes Fencing Club. Students will learn basic footwork: the advance, the retreat and the lunge. Beginning students will also learn basic blade work skills: direct attack, beat attack, parry-4, and parry-6. They will learn fencing strip rules and hand judging skills. By the end of class, students will have fenced bouts with several opponents.
An equipment use and maintenance fee of $10 to be paid directly to the instructor at firstclass.
