Join us for an introduction to the techniques of Sabre Fencing! We’ll have fun learning about this Olympic martial art form that evolved from historical cavalry sabres. Fencing is a fast paced, offense and defense, agility focused sport, and in this class we will cover target areas, cuts, parries, footwork, and our core values of honor, balance, integrity, discipline, and respect. On the last day of class we’ll hold a mini tournament game — may the best fencer win! 

Disclaimer: Foam “blades” will be used in this class so no special equipment is required – with the exception of: 

1) lightweight, appropriate shoes like sneakers (no crocs or sandals) that provide stability

2) stretchy, comfortable pants (no jeans)

As each class builds on the last, consistent attendance is STRONGLY encouraged! 

For those who have already taken this class please consider: Sabre Fencing - Next Level

If you loved Sabre Fencing Fundamentals, join us again as we take our skills to the next level! We’ll review and build upon what we’ve already learned including target areas, cuts, parries, footwork, and our core values of honor, balance, integrity, discipline, and respect. In this class we’ll layer in a solid focus on reffing, bouting, and fencing based games.
