STEP Onto THE STRIP
A welcoming Springfield club where new and experienced fencers learn, train, and grow — guided by Coach Sekou, an FIE Master Coach & International Referee, and ArtDu’s skilled coaching team.
Ages 4½ and up - Beginners welcome
Private lessons - Competitive training
Épée and sabre
We specialize in épée and sabre. Each has its own target area, scoring rules and pace, and fencers of every age start in one of the two.
Épée
Whole body is target and there is no right of way, so every clean hit counts. The most patient of the two — it rewards fencers who read an opponent and wait. Led by Coach Sekou, FIE Master Coach and international referee.
Sabre
Cuts and thrusts anywhere above the waist, and the faster of the two — touches are decided in a fraction of a second. Suits fencers who like speed and aggression. Coached by Janine, from fundamentals through competitive bouting.
