How often have you thought to yourself: "I’ve always wanted to give that a try" …

Well, here’s your chance. Start out by learning the "footwork" and progress on to picking up a foil (the "sword") and experience a real fencing bout. Stand face-to-face with your opponent, salute, and then… En Garde!

Often referred to as "Physical Chess", fencing is as much a sport of strategy as reflexes.  At then end of a bout, you will wonder why you are sweating and breathing so hard... with your mind engaged, burning calories just doesn't seem so hard to do.

What do you get when you arm a class full of people with foam covered swords, staves, daggers and shields?

Loud battle cries, temporary alliances, strategic positioning, dramatic "deaths" and tons of mayhem!

While less formal than Historical Weapon, Sport Weapon® gets you on the "front line" of the battle faster for those who simply want to jump in and join the fray. After practicing your drills and reviewing safety guidelines, you can "have at" your own foe. Where else can you take out your day of stress in a battle against various nefarious types? In Sport Weapon®, we provide the weapons, you provide the righteous cause.
