Hi! Anyone interested to let your kids take up sabre fencing lessons? My 9 year old son is currently taking sabre fencing lessons from a professional China coach and I am looking for boys of similar age who are interested, to learn together with him.
Anyone interested can send me a PM. I can help to liase with the coach to arrange for a free trial lesson. -

Hi,
What is the youngest age to get into competition? On an average child, how long does one takes to complete the learning of fencing? 2 years or more? What are the essential skills to pick up?

Hi, I would just like to ask, if a fencer is about to start fencing in a competition, and the referee checks that either the blade or the wire is not working properly, and the fencer needs to change it, does the referee give a yellow card? :?:

Hi, I chanced upon a nice Holiday Fencing Program from Absolute Fencing and would like to share with you guys here. It costs $250 for 8 sessions and the details can be found here (http://www.absolutefencing.com.sg/wordpress/?p=1931). Looks rather reasonable to me. Do check it out.

i am thinking of enrolling my daughter in this for the holiday. we have seen some fencing action previously and the girl is quite keen. but prices are a big deterrence in those seemingly well-established schools. just a question - is there a minimum age to sign up for this holiday program? should my girl also be rather athletic to start this program (she does not have much sporting background!)?

If I am not wrong the program says age 7-12.

Seems like most fencing schools are in the west / bt timah area. Any in the east? :scratchhead:
