"If you’re an adult looking for something new to do, new to learn, or a new way to work out, a fun course at Vivo Fencing Club is right up your alley! The expert coaches and friendly staff take care of you as you venture through your various alter-egos: from Iñigo Montoya, Aladár Gerevich, Chevalier de Saint-Georges, or Nado Nadi, to Jack Sparrow. You’ll be in fencing gear the first class and bouting the next! I’ve had a great time and highly recommend Vivo!"

"My son has been at Vivo Fencing Club for about 5 months. He started with a summer camp and loved it so much he joined for weekly lessons. The coaches are amazing-accomplished fencers, very knowledgeable about the sport and encouraging to students/fencers. Not only do they coach and teach the sport, but there is a lot of teaching around responsibility, teamwork, independence, and being a healthy athlete. We are so glad we found Vivo and I’d recommend it to anyone, whether a beginner or experienced fencer!"

"Vivo is a wonderful place where people of all ages and backgrounds can learn to fence, share resources and build up lifelong friendships. The staff are welcoming and professional, always available for guidance and support. The coaches are not only physical trainers, but also psychologists, role models, mentors and friends! My daughter enjoyed practicing in the club, instead of receiving one-size-fits-all instructions, the personalized guidance definitely helps her to reach her fullest athletic potential, I can see her rapid growth both in physical and mental capabilities, which will bring her lasting impacts! I highly recommend this club, especially the passionate coaching team!"

"I have been fencing at Vivo for 6 years now and have enjoyed every moment. From being a beginner to fencing nationally I have always enjoyed my time at the club and look forward to every practice. With top class coaches they make learning the sport fun and engaging. If you are looking to learn to fence I would definitely recommend Vivo!"

"My 12 year old son has been a member of the club for a year and a half. The professionalism and dedication of the coaches and the camaraderie of the students have enriched his life. The coaches have created a positive environment where my son’s enthusiasm for the sport continues to grow. You’ll never have to drag your child to Vivo! The kids encourage and support each other. The coaches are World Class fencers and have high expectations of their students. I encourage anyone interested to read about them on the website. The coaching they provide at tournaments can’t be beat. Can’t say enough about this club."
