Classes fencers

Fencing is an excellent sport for both the body and for the mind. It provides a great cardio workout, increases speed and reflexes, improves balance and agility. Fencing also teaches strategic thinking and tactical planning, because to win a bout you need not only your physical strength, but your wits as well. During the Renaissance the discipline took on the aura of high art. It takes years of dedicated work to reach national or international competitive levels.

Beginner Classes
The Beginners' classes are designed to provide an introduction to the sport of fencing for people of any age group. They are filled with engaging games, which make the learning process easier - especially for kids.

During the sessions you will learn the basic rules of fencing - how to handle your weapon, move, attack and defend yourself against your opponent, as well as the rules of scoring points during a bout.

Advanced Classes
Advanced level classes are mainly aimed at fencers committed to participating in tournaments, and who have made fencing an important part of their lives. Advanced classes are also open to anyone desiring to improve their basic skills and willing to participate in more intensive practice.

The advanced program provides fencers an opportunity to compete in the biggest tournaments in the country as well as at an international level. Young adults that perform well in national competitions will have scholarship opportunities in the best colleges and universities in the United States such as Princeton, Northwestern, Columbia University, UPenn or Notre Dame.

Private Lessons
Private lessons allow a student to practice one-on-one with the coach. This is an ideal time to improve technique and learn new tactics. That is why we find it a very important part of training. One lesson lasts 15 minutes and costs $25.00. You don't need to be a club member of Hollywood Sabre to purchase private lessons with our coaches! (non-members - $30.00 per lesson)

After-School Programs
We offer one-hour long after-school programs for groups of up to 10 kids onsite at schools in Broward and Miami-Dade Counties. We will provide the equipment - kids only need basic sportswear. The sessions are organized around teaching basic fencing skills, and include games that promote coordination and good reflexes. For more information, contact us.
