For those new to our club who want to try a competitive class before committing, you're welcome to drop in!
Book your Drop-In Class here. *Select the Adult Competitive class date from the calendar, and follow the registration process. Note that the adult classes are offered in our Cambridge location only. Our adult program is one of the largest in the country, meeting bi-weekly, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, for 90 minute classes.
The program consists of fencers ages 17-70 who have already acquired a certain level of proficiency in fencing and are looking to further develop their skills. Our adults are high rated and active competitors in the National events.
The class is focused on refining advanced fencing techniques such as footwork, blade work, more complex actions and strategies tailored to competitive scenarios.
Exercises to improve strength, agility, speed, and endurance are incorporated in the class schedule, as well as drills, circuit training, and targeted workouts to enhance fencing-specific muscle group. In addition to sharpening technical skills, the class may include discussions in regards to advanced tactical strategies, that can involve studying opponent patterns and learning to adapt to different fencing styles.
Coaches provide feedback and guidance to help fencers improve their performance during supervised bouts in a simulated competitive environment
Classes may include mental preparation techniques such as visualization, goal-setting, and mindfulness exercises to help fencers perform at their best under pressure.
