NOVICE/INTERMEDIATE: This program is for fencers who have completed the Learn to Fence program or who have had previous fencing experience. The class covers basic fencing techniques, leading to more advanced work in epee and foil. Once a student has chosen an area of concentration the focus turns to preparation for tournaments.
