Youth Fencing Classes: Try Before You Join

Prospective youth fencers can attend a trial class as AFC's guest; at the trial class, new fencers will participate in warm-up games and drills with the other fencers, then will work with one of our coaches to learn some basic fencing skills that will prepare them to join in the ongoing class series. 

Free-trial dates are typically offered at the start of the season (September) and at the start of the calendar year (January). We also schedule free trials directly with prospective fencers throughout the season. We do not do free trials for youth fencers during the summer (May-Aug) Click here to contact AFC to schedule a trial class. 

Fencers should wear sweatpants (no shorts), a T shirt, and sport shoes to the class. Parents must remain on site for the class.
