Imagine a crew of masked sword enthusiasts—part musketeers, part modern-day swashbucklers. They’re on a mission: to spread the joy of fencing like confetti at a victory celebration. Whether it is through our Parafencing program with lunges that make you think they will fall out of their fencing wheelchair or our neurodiverse programs that create smiles you can see through the masks. Don't miss our unforgettable youth programs that bring imagination and creativity to reality which uniquely grows with them as they transition to our college program which helps match our students with colleges and Universities that have fencing. There is nothing like handing a kindergartener a fencing blade for the first time and watching their excitement. Our newest program takes the energy and excitement of parafencing and shrinks it down so our smallest fencers can join in on the action. Lastly, you may catch us handing swords to complete strangers or our neighbors through community engagement events. Our love for fencing knowns no boundaries whether it is a mental or physical disability, financial, or geographical boundary.
