STAGE COMBAT FENCING ADVENTURE

​

En Garde! Your Summer of Fun with Swords Awaits!

​

At Hills Athletic Fencing Club we believe that summer sport camps should be fun and exciting. Knight. Pirate. Ninja. Jedi. Fencer. Whatever you want to be, learn to wield your sword at our school holiday program for beginners and experienced fencers. Because kids learn through play. We teach basics of fencing through our fun and structured system of youth development which includes building students confidence, teamwork, coordination, balance, fencing etiquette, rules, and sportsmanship (fencing is a noble sport after all).
