The sport of sword fighting has existed since the time of ancient Egypt - but modern fencing is most closely related to forms of dueling that evolved in the 16th century. It was one of the nine sports contested at the modern Olympics. At NESA, we keep this heritage strong by offering a full fencing program.
The NESA Fencing program increases strength, flexibility, power, endurance, speed, agility, hand/eye coordination and quickness. It's also a great cardio-pulmonary work-out.
