FIT Kids (Fencers In Training)

FIT (Fencers In Training) Program

FIT KIDS (6-8)

Six and eight year old beginning swordsmen engage in a forty-five minute long class that uses the building blocks of competitive fencing to emphasize the importance of working together while also fostering the child’s ability to think individually and critically starting from an early age.  The development of hand-eye coordination, general fitness, and body movement begun at the previous level is age appropriately elevated here to fit the advanced abilities of first through third graders.

FIT KIDS (4&5)

For the littlest fencer, New Amsterdam Fencing Academy focuses, first and foremost, on developing a healthy child – while allowing them to run around brandishing foam swords.  Our forty-five minute, weekly class helps preschoolers and kindergartners improve their balance, hand-eye coordination, and mindfulness through games and challenges.  That involve swords.

They like that.
