The club currently
offers beginner and intermediate fencing classes for university
students and adults (for information on classes for children and
teens, please click here).
Our beginner classes introduce basic
fencing footwork, various attack and defense techniques, and help
fencers develop the necessary skills needed to obtain their Yellow
Armband. No fencing experience is required.
A printable (pdf) version of the
lesson plan for the beginner course is available here: BeginnerCourse.pdf
Through the Ottawa Developmental
Fencing Circuit (ODFC), beginner fencers also have the opportunity
to participate in local beginner competitions. Those interested
in learning more about the ODFC should visit odfc.ottawafencing.ca.
While the club provides specialized
fencing equipment for those enrolled in the classes (foil, mask,
glove, and jacket), participants are asked to bring a t-shirt, a
pair of sweat or track pants (NO SHORTS), and non-marking athletic
shoes.
