In our EMAA Recreational Fencing Program, students (Ages 10 and older) learn the basics of modern sport fencing with the foil. They learn the footwork required to keep and gain distance against an opponent on a fencing strip. Students learn basic blade work with a foil, including attacks and defenses. As they participate in recreational bouts with other students, they learn how to combine attacks and defenses as well as the roles of directors and judges in competitions.

Students are provided with an access code that will allow them into the facility for classes.

Class structure

Classes will consist of warm-ups, instruction, and drills. As the class progresses, students will engage in practice bouts and class competitions. Occasionally, there will be seminars in various topics (e.g. other weapons, rapier, stage combat. etc.)
