Dear Fencing Friends and Families,
It's hard to believe we only have a couple of months until the end of the season!! It is time to plan for the Summer of 2026 and the new school year in September.
Our season goes till June 12, then we start camps and go on a Summer Schedule:
Combined All-Ages/All-Skill classes Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 6pm. Camps 9am to 4pm. Private Lessons as scheduled with your coach. If you still have any lessons or classes to make up, this is when we do it.
All automatic payments will stop by June 12.
This year we are offering additional flexibility with the Pre-Nationals/End-Of-Season Camps: we will accommodate both the school end calendar and the yet unknown Summer Nationals Schedule. A flex-day option has been added where you can select up to 14 day of camp. We will add Saturdays and Sundays as it makes most sense for everyone. June 15-July 3. Register Here.
Beginner Camps are an amazing way to introduce the sport. Each week begins with basics, building an equipment package that stays with campers for the week and we finish with a friendly tournament of Fridays. Programs include games, an overall sports education, social skills and of course lots of fencing: technique, strategy, refereeing and etiquette. Please pack a lunch. Lunch is 12Noon to 1pm and we run a little chess club for interested kids. Full curriculum available upon request. June 29-August 10. Register Here.
Olympic Champion Camp 2026: our amazing relationships across the world continue to grow! Gergely Siklosi has obligations back home this year so he talked to his teammate for us and we are really looking forward to another week with an Olympic Champion! Please welcome Tibor Andrásfi!
Tibor is a 26-year-old Hungarian épée fencer. I started fencing at the age of eight and have been training under my father’s guidance ever since. He has been a member of the Hungarian national team since 2015, and since 2019 he has also competed as part of the senior national team.
His best results include:
Olympic Champion (Team), Paris 2024
4th place (Individual), Paris 2024
World Championship Silver Medalist (Team), 2025
European Champion (Team) 2023
Two-time Junior World Champion
8-time Senior World Cup Gold Medalist, including Individual Gold at the Bern World Cup (2022)
We are really looking forward to Summer 2026! The time to plan is now!
