schlager7 Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 Brazosport Fencing is a youth-oriented sport fencing club. We meet on the campus of Brazosport College in lovely Lake Jackson, Texas. We practice Epee. No experience required! Every single one of the fencers was a complete beginner when he or she started. Really. This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up Most of the crop of current fencers are in 8th or 9th grade, and started in 6th grade. We have a new class of 6th grade beginners about to start, I hope. If the class makes. I'm sure it will. Right? Starting ages are usually 11 or 12 at the youngest, 13 or 14 or 15 is fine. Upper age limits are negotiable, but if you're a senior in high school and will be going to college in a year I'm not sure you have time to learn very much here. Still, we'll see what we can work out. The class is organized through the Brazosport College CE Department. We normally have one thirteen week long class in the Spring semester, one in the Fall semester, and a six week class in the summer. We will on occasion have a six week beginner class in the Spring or Fall for new fencers. The next beginner class for 11 and 12 year olds is scheduled to start March 9, 2009.
