Beginning fencing is an introduction to the fundamentals of modern sport fencing. Of the three weapon types (foil, epeé, sabre) sanctioned in international competitions, only foil is taught in beginning fencing. Fencing entails progressive conditioning of the shoulders, lower torso and legs along with fine motor enhancement of the fingers and wrists. Understanding fencing has wide application off the strip integrating diplomacy, aggression, speed and skill. This course may not be repeated for credit.
