Private Instructions
You love fencing, you want to improve, you have a goal. It is time to start private lessons! Private lessons are high intensity one-on-one sessions with your coach. The 20 minute lesson is very demanding both physically and mentally. Nevertheless, this is the best way to learn the various sequences of blade movement, the nuances of the blade technique, proper timing and distance. Any of our experienced coaches will bring out the best in the student and help develop individuality. The non-stop refinements of actions are a never-ending process of fencing. Just ask the champions!
