Metro Chicago Fencing Center is a private fencing training center devoted to developing fencers of all ages.  We offer world class fencing instruction.  We encourage fencers to be self directed and involved in the learning experience for themselves and all members of the club.  Coaches employ patient and gentle teaching strategies.  Our fencers have access to various games, an interactive drilling target, bouting and fencing activities.  Our coaches enjoy participating in games and joking with students, developing personal relationships with each fencer.  We are dedicated to fostering a fun, creative and intellectually stimulating environment encouraging personal growth, leadership abilities and acquisition and development of fencing skills.

About Fencing

 

Fencing is a unique sport that requires use of both the body and mind.  It is often called "physical chess" due to the complexity of the sport.  Fencing is friendly to all ages and ability levels.  A fencer can begin to learn and enjoy the sport at the age of 4 and continue their entire lives.  Competitive fencing begins with a 10 and Under category and continues through to a 60 and Over Veterans category.  

 

 

 

 Classes begin Saturday May 17 and Monday May 19!
