A dynamic, energetic and spirited community of fencers and families, Capital offers year-around, progressive training and instruction for youths ages 7 and up, teenagers, and adults at all levels, from recreational to internationally competitive.
Our program strategy is to develop every student into well-rounded athletes first. Through individual instruction, skills-building, conditioning and competition, we build both halves of the athlete–the physical: coordination, balance, speed and strength; and the mental: focus, self-control, accurate decision-making and adaptability to ever-changing situations.
But even more importantly, through fencing, we all gain essential skills that help us to better meet and manage the challenges we face throughout life.
For beginning youth fencers, we offer a free trial “New Musketeers” class on Saturday mornings from 9AM - 10AM, starting Saturday, September 7, 2024.
If you’re interested this free trial, please click the button below and send us your child’s name, date birth, and which Saturday you would like to attend.
We can also tailor classes/lessons based on a fencer’s age and experience. Please click on the button above to contact us to discuss what options are available.
Summer Camps
The fencing fun does not stop after regular season classes finish in June—participating in Capital Fencing Summer Camps is an unbeatable way to spend the summer, in addition to taking private lessons, which we will continue to offer in July and August.
Ideally, fencers will participate in at least one week of Capital Fencing Summer Camps, which are essential to maintain the skills they've learned and gain new ones in order to progress to the next level of classes and prepare for the upcoming season.
Every day of a Capital Fencing Summer Camp is packed with awesome games and fencing drills to develop strength, speed, and balance. Attending camp will also give fencers the opportunity to develop important sports psychology tools like visualization, as well as more time for bouting, both of which will set them up for success in the first competitions of the Fall.
