Boston Fencing Club (BFC) offers three levels of fencing classes for teens in the Boston, MA area, including beginner, tactical, and competitive fencing.
Boston Fencing Club is the nation’s oldest fencing club, tracing our roots back to 1858. For the past thirty years we have been teaching children and adults the safe and exciting sport of fencing. We offer classes for beginning and experienced fencers age six through adult, as well as training for competitive fencers.
Over the years, we’ve cultivated:
Beginner Fencing: Students will learn the footwork, basic attacks, defense and tactics of the sport while improving overall fitness and agility over a seven week term.
Tactical: The tactical program is designed around introducing fencers to a more competitive training and environment over a 7 week term.
Competitive: The competitive program is a seven week program designed for athletes who are competing at national and international levels.
Fencers are encourage to attend as much as they can and to free fence with adult members and college students in the evening.
