From September to June, the club
offers beginner fencing classes for children and teens (for information
on classes for adults, please click here).
Our beginner classes introduce basic
fencing footwork, various attack and defense techniques, and help
fencers develop the necessary skills needed to obtain their Yellow
Armband. No fencing experience is required.
Through the Ottawa Developmental
Fencing Circuit (ODFC), beginner fencers also have the opportunity
to participate in local beginner competitions. Those interested
in learning more about the ODFC should visit odfc.ottawafencing.ca.
While the club provides specialized
fencing equipment for those enrolled in the classes (foil, mask,
glove, and jacket), participants are asked to bring a t-shirt, a
pair of sweat or track pants (NO SHORTS), and non-marking athletic
shoes.

Registration for our classes is done
through the RA Centre. If you require any additional information
about our classes, or wish to register for a class, please visit
the
RA Centre Website.

If you have any general questions about the club, please contact
Paul ApSimon by email at paul@ottawafencing.ca,
or by phone at 613-852-3832, or simply drop by the club.
