Whether you want to compete on the national scene or are looking for a fun way to get a workout with great people, we've got the class that's right for you!

Beginning Fencing Instruction

If you’ve never fenced before, or if it’s been a long time and you feel the need for a refresher, this is the place to start. We offer two opportunities for those wanting to give fencing a try. The Starter lessons are private, but if you would like, you can schedule them with a friend or family member. Just let us know if you would like to do so. As the Fundamental Class assumes some knowledge of fencing, you will need to schedule your Starter Lessons prior to scheduling the Fundamentals Class. KCFC is a Member Club of USA Fencing and insured by their insurance program, as such, all participants in our programs must have at least a non-competitive membership in USA Fencing. During your Starter course you will be given a free trial membership to USA Fencing.

Starter/Beginner Course for Youth or Adults $90

Package includes three, thirty-minute private lessons and one (hour long) fundamental class. This course is designed for those with little to no experience or those interested in returning to the sport of fencing. The package expires 90 days from purchase.

Starter/Beginner Two Weapon Course for Adults $110

Our Two Weapon Starter Package includes four, thirty-minute private lessons and two, sixty-minute Fundamental classes. This package allows you to try both of the weapons that we offer - sabre or epee. For each, you will get 2 private lessons and a fundamental class.

This course is designed for those with little to no experience or those interested in returning to the sport of fencing. Select any four Adult Starter Lessons that fit your schedule. The package expires 90 days from purchase.

Starter/Beginner Course for two $180

Looking for a unique experience for you and a friend, spouse or your child? This is the option for you. The $180 fee covers 3 starter lessons, a fundamental class, the use of equipment, and a Trial membership in USA Fencing (the National Governing Body for the sport of Fencing) for each of you.

Your three Starter lessons will be 45 min - just the two of you with an instructor. Then both of you would join a Fundamentals class for your final session.

This course is designed for those with little to no experience or those interested in returning to the sport of fencing. Select any of the Starter Lessons for Two Lessons that fit your schedule. After completing your three lessons, choose one Fundamental class to try out your new skills. This is meant to be an introduction to either the weapon of Sabre or Epee, so you should try to make sure you are selecting compatible lesson slots. The package expires 90 days from purchase.
