Already Driving Your Kid Here?
Adult sessions run alongside youth training. Instead of answering emails in the car, get on the strip. Many of our adult fencers started as curious parents - now they compete at the same tournaments as their kids.
Book Your First LessonPerformance
You are not here for exercise. You are here to compete. Two group sessions per week provide the structured training foundation, and one private lesson per week with any available NCF coach delivers the individualized coaching that turns reps into real development - point construction, distance, and the tactical reads that separate trained fencers from competitive ones. Need more competitive intensity? Saturday Immersion is available as an add-on - a 3-hour session with Coach Gary alongside NCF's most committed competitive athletes, both youth and adult. The add-on trades one of your weekly group sessions for the Saturday slot, plus a $48 surcharge.
