Fascinated by sword-play in the movies? This safe, fast-paced sport will be a wonderful new experience. Enjoy competitive fun safely without “fighting”. This beginning class will provide you the basics for advancement. All equipment provided. This program is designed for all fitness levels.
Fencing is one of the few sports that practices social distancing. However, due to COVID-19, fencers must choose to rent personal equipment for the session or to purchase their own basic set (est. $140). This is applies to additional family members who register as well.
To rent a personal set of equipment, contact Fencing Sports Club on voice only number 630-678-0035. Fitting of club equipment will be as accurate as possible. The set given to your fencer is at the discretion of the instructor. Safety in the sport of fencing is imperative.
If you prefer to purchase a personal beginner set, the club recommends ordering from Blue Gauntlet. Participants must attend first class with their new set in-hand. At the end of the session, you may have the club buy your equipment at 50% of purchase price.
If you have any questions regarding the program or new equipment procedure, please contact Cody at cnelson@fpparks.org or (847) 455-2852.
