Fencing is a mentally and physically challenging Olympic combat sport where opponents try to trick each other to score points using foils (blunt, flexible practice weapons). This camp teaches basic technique and tactical ideas through fun competitive games and is open to both beginners and those who have previously participated in fencing programs. Students (ages 8 through 12) will get a great workout and have lots of fun while developing balance, coordination, tactical thinking, and discipline. No prior experience is needed. Camp fee includes fencing glove and use of all other equipment. Participants should wear sneakers and loose, comfortable athletic clothing. Camp will meet in the Gauntlett Community Center. Instruction will be provided instructors from the Delaware Valley Fencers Club. For further fencing information, please visit www.dvfencers.com.
