Fencing Camp
Week-long fencing camp for students entering grades 3–8
Introduction
Lunge into the excitement of fencing, one of the fastest, oldest, and coolest sports in the Olympics! We've partnered with Salt City Swords Fencing Club to create a weeklong camp that will cover the history, etiquette, rules, basic footwork, bladework, and strategy of modern Olympic fencing. Students will develop the skills necessary to excel in modern day sword fighting, including speed, confidence, coordination, balance, and mental stamina!
