Inclusive Fencing Clinics at Ludus Fencing Studio!
Join us at one of three free clinics this summer and be introduced to the sport of Fencing! A wonderful combination of strategy and anticipation, Fencing provides participants with challenges, tactical planning, fantastic workouts, and great fun.
You will not want to miss this opportunity to meet Coach Semion Keriakidi and explore the world of opportunities at Ludus Fencing Studio. On a regular, on-going basis, Coach Semion offers 1:1 training sessions, group sessions, open gym time, and more. You will definitely be able to find your place at this friendly, welcoming fencing club!
These FREE clinics are the perfect way to get started in a sport that will change your life! During the clinic, you will learn about the sport of fencing and be able to try out some intro moves. Whether seated or standing, we’ll make sure you get a feel for fencing before you leave!
Fencing is the perfect sport for many people, including people with an intellectual or developmental disability, vision impairment, spinal cord injury, Multiple sclerosis, Parkinsons’ Disease, spina bifida, TBI, and many other cognitive or mobility diagnoses. Great for manual chair and power chair users.
