FAQ

do I have to buy my own equipment to join fencing all Levels?

Students are NOT required to buy their own equipment initially. I supply the foils and wrist straps. I have adapted my lesson plans to accommodate students without all the necessary safety equipment. However, if the student wishes to participate in certain lessons or bouting the minimum safety equipment is essential. Most beginning students require successful completion of a few terms before their skills are developed enough for bouting or certain lessons. This allows students the time to decide if they wish to invest in the sport. In the meantime, students WILL learn the fundamentals of footwork, offense, defense, and counteroffense. If you have further questions, please contact me.

what does 'hybrid' mean?

For my classes, 'hybrid' means that students can choose to come in person or join via Zoom for each class meeting. I email a Zoom invitation to all students at the beginning of each week.

what should i bring to the first day/night of class?

Normally, I do not expect students to have supplies at the first class meeting. We will discuss the supply list in class. I will supply any materials for any exercises the first class.

for the acrylic & oil painting class, do i need to buy supplies for both?

NO! You will choose either acrylic OR oil. Can't decide? We will discuss the choice in the first class meeting.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.
