Program areas at The Fencing Center

Our goal is to grow well-rounded students. Mastery in Fencing is as much about emotional prowess and resilience as it is about technique and physical skill. We are a three-weapons club; with epee, saber, and foil. We teach how to have fun, winning graciously, sportsmanship, life and team skills, emotional mastery, and competitive Fencing. In The hands of a good teacher, sports can teach some of The most important skills in life. Our facility is one of The largest west of The rockies and has state of The art Fencing strips and scoring equipment for its members and visiting Fencers. Facility expenses and salaries are The largest expenses funded by our services. We also promote learn-to-fence classes and subsidize low-income families' initial cost to participate in Fencing. Thru waiving of class fees for financially identified candidates and our coaches volunteering private lessons, The organization is able to provide its services to families who would not otherwise be able to enjoy The sport.
