Kids & Teens Classes

We teach historical fencing to young people in two age brackets: Kids (7 – 11 years) and Teens (12 -18 years).

FOR THE TERM
BOOK
FREE TRIAL CLASS

In these classes, the students learn how to wield a sword safely using a variety of safe sword simulators (foam, plastic, or steel as appropriate to maturity) . We practice defensive and offensive techniques, and fence each other to test and apply our skills.

Learning swordfighting gives young people a chance to get physically active, to improve at a challenging skill and to work with other similarly geeky friends all in a welcoming, and inclusive environment.

Classes are organised on a term basis, following the terms of Victorian public schools, see the timetable or the calendar for up to date details.
