Sign up for Fencing Summer Camps - We have space!  We offer lessons and classes all summer!

Summer 2026 - Renaissance Fencing Club offers Elite Foil camps, fun Summer Camps for kids ages 6 – 12, a session dedicated to younger kids (5-6 years) and a session just for teens (ages 13 - 17)!

​​

Introductory Camps - no experience needed!

​

Curious about fencing? Our Introductory Fencing Camps teach the basics of the Olympic sport of fencing for your 7 to 12 year old. Fencing engages both mind and body and teaches problem solving while improving reflexes and agility.   Fencing does not require a specific body type - fencers develop different styles based on their individual size and strength. Fencing requires respect; fencers salute at the end of the match regardless of outcome, win or lose. RFC provides an open fun environment for kids to learn fencing.  Participants will learn footwork, play fencing related games, learn the basics of blade work and technique.  Every camp features a mini fencing competition on the last day – parents are welcome to attend!

​

Our coaches are all full time professionals - we do not use students to run our camps.  Our coaches all have experience teaching and competing at a national and international level.  They are all coach/professional members of USA Fencing and they are all Safesport certified.

 

Camps are half day from 9am – 12 noon for boys and girls ages 7 - 12 ( mature 6 years olds are welcome).  We try to group fencers with others in their age group so please let us know if your camp week(s) are flexible.

​

We're excited to offer two dedicated weeks of camp for the youngest students - ages 5 to 6 years old from July 13th to 17th, and August 10th - 14th.  We are also hosting a week of teen summer camp from August 4 - 7 in addition to youth camps the same weeks. The teen camp is for boys and girls ages 13-17. It is open to teens who have never fenced, and is also a great way for beginning teen students to refresh their fencing skills during the summer to be ready for the fall. 

 

We hope to have the students find a new passion and for all the fencers to consider a fast track to competitons, which begin in September!

​

Fencers must wear sports clothing and sneakers.  Please no crocs, sandals or jeans – all clothing should be flexible. 

 

Use of all needed protective equipment is included.

Cancellations/Changes:  there are no refunds for camp registrations after registration is completed.  If a camper needs to switch sessions this is subject to availability and appropriate session for the campers age and we must know about it at least 7 days in advance.  However, campers who cannot attend a booked session can have a credit toward an introductory package with our coaches - we must know 7 days ahead of time!
