FORTE FUNDAMENTALS (SUSPENDED)
New to fencing? Looking for a fun way to exercise? Come learn the fundamentals of fencing in a series of 6 weekly classes. This package also includes 2 semi-private lessons after completing the classes. Choose either a Tuesday or Wednesday series. Please refer to our calendar for scheduling needs. Classes begin promptly at 6:15pm and last 45 minutes. START Dates for the Fundamentals classes are as follows: March 3/4, May 5/6, July 7/8, September 1/2. ALL EQUIPMENT IS PROVIDED DURING THE CLASS.
OPEN FENCING (LIMITED)
As part of their training program, fencers need to practice learned skills and keep in shape. These fencers will participate in bouts against each other and any other willing, and appropriately equipped, person. In order to use a facility, the fencers must pay what is called a “Floor Fee.” This allows them access to the strips, so they can work with their partner(s) to hone their skills and adapt to different fencing techniques.
Forte will permit 6 fencers per session to attend each Open Fencing session. Each session will be limited to a single weapon and will have 50 minutes to fence.
You MUST sign up using the Lesson Scheduler to receive your admission ticket for Open Fencing.
