Private Lessons
Work 1-on-1 with our coaches to elevate your fencing
Fencers get 20 minutes of private time with a coach of their choice. They will work with that coach to refine fundamental techniques, learn new concepts, and discuss strategies.
​
To take a lesson, fencers must wear a fencing mask and glove at all times. This can be provided by the club at no additional charge.
​
We highly recommend a thorough warm-up prior to taking a lesson. Please ensure you arrive in plenty of time to warm-up ahead of your lesson time.​
Lessons are available to BFC members only.
