Summer 2005 Fencing Clinics

Fencing is a safe, Olympic sport. Through plenty of fencing and fencing-specific games and drills, our programs for children develop coordination, concentration, self-esteem and etiquette. Students are challenged physically and mentally. The Brand Club Summer Fencing Clinic is designed to provide students with an intensive, comprehensive fencing experience which includes daily group and individual instruction, competitive electrical bouting, conditioning, training regimens and exposure to top-level coaches. The Brand Summer Fencing Clinic is for both beginners and advanced athletes.
