Fearless Fencing

Want to clash swords with an opponent just like in the movies except that no one gets hurt? Mr. Scott Knies will show you the proper and safe way to fence, including how to move your feet and handle the sword. You will wear protective clothing - mask, padded jacket and glove. In the final session, you will do some actual bouting (the term for sword play). An advanced class will be offered later this year. This class is a necessary first!
