Cancellation Information: If we need to cancel Fencing on a scheduled fencing day, one may make up the class on another day in Arlington, Reading or Winchester regardless of where one fences.
Equipment Policy and Rental: Instructor will provide equipment for the first 8 weeks. This is intended to give new fencers an opportunity to try out this sport without having to purchase a set of gear. For the second and subsequent sessions, there is a rental fee (payable to the instructor) of $20 for the 4 week session and $40 for the 8 week session. An individual may (recommended) instead purchase a new complete beginner set (7 pieces) that costs about $200. The set includes a foil, mask, jacket, glove, underarm protector, plastic chest protector and a fencing bag.
