GROUP CLASSES: 

Petit Musketeers: Fencing for kids 4 to 6 years old. Who doesn't want to be a pirate,  a Zorro, a hero? This class is specially designed for kids who like to play with swords and dream of saving kingdoms! Classes include a lot of fencing oriented games and activities, as well as notions of technique and tactic. Never underestimate the value of an early start. With proper guidance and a lot of patience, you will have a fencer in progress at home!

Youth 8 - Y8. For kids born 2017 and under. With games and collective activities, our kids start getting the notions of the fencing game. Classes are one hour long and include games, footwork, a lot of drills and bouting.  Swords are plastic in the majority of the classes, while they learn about safety, and blade control. You can start with group classes once a week, but recommended frequency is twice a week, for continuous learning. At this age many kid start competing, and goals must be adjusted to their possibilities, without missing the fun and joy of fencing. 

Youth 10 - Y10. For fencers  born 2015-2018. With a better coordination, kids in Y10 have a better performance of fencing appropriate techniques. However, individual differences must always be addressed and respected. The group classes are one hour long and include games, footwork, bladework, drills and bouting. Classes are a mix of metallic and plastic fencing. 

Youth12   - Y12. For fencers  born 2013-2016. Our soon-to-be teenagers become more aware of the commitment they need and start showing (or not) their competitive personalities. Classes are one hour long and include games, footwork, a lot of technical and tactical drills and bouting. Middle schoolers are chatty and social, and besides involving all formal parts of a high quality training session, there's room for conversation and idea's sharing, because port has a social role. The hard part of this stage is to combine school, friends and fencing: Twice a week group class plus individual lesson is the recommended combination for success. Off Campus PE option is available for this age group. 

Youth 14 - Y14. For fencers  born 2011-2014. Each one of our teenagers bring their diverse personalities to the strip, in a class that includes more challenges from the physical, mental and social point of view. The group classes are 90 minutes long and include games, footwork, bladework, drills and bouting. Classes are performed using metallic weapons, and a lot more tactic and strategy comes into play.
