Sheridan Fencing Academy Manhattan 1801 1st Avenue, Manhattan, New York,

"While it's a great place for younger kids to fence, it's also a great starting place for adults with little to no prior experience! The coaches are fantastic, it's a fun environment, and a wonderful way to pick up a new hobby that happens to be an awesome workout. It's also far more affordable than other options in NYC, and has more classes each week for adults. Would highly recommend their trial class!"

"My son signed up for Sheridan Fencing last summer after attending a birthday party here. He’s always been very athletic and open to trying new sports, but we quickly discovered his absolute love for fencing. He has a crazy, hectic schedule but Sheridan offers a convenient and flexible scheduling option for us. We love the class schedule and that the train and bus is nearby, so coming from school is very easy for us. My only regret is not signing him up sooner!!"

"Sheridan Fencing Academy is an excellent club that provides the best instruction and fun for my child. The prices aren’t bad compared to other clubs. Their academy is within walking distance from our apartment and they are nearby the Q train so that helps anytime we are not nearby before class. Definitely consider signing up!"

"Sheridan is the perfect place to start a successful fencing career. Jason, the head coach, is particularly gifted at cultivating a love for the sport in his students from an early age. The combination of his expertise and the fun, child-friendly atmosphere of the club creates an environment where students can thrive. I am proud to have been one of Sheridan's first ever students and have seen it grow over the years. I would not be where I am today without it."

"As former fencers, my husband and I put a lot of thought into where we wanted to bring our young children to start fencing. I asked several friends still involved in coaching fencing and they recommended trying Sheridan. We have had the best experience and are so grateful to the studio. The teachers are kind and encouraging to the children, ensuring that their love of fencing develops and continues. Jason is both a wonderful coach and business owner who shows patience and humor to the kids and a great deal of reasonableness to parents and adults - sometimes absent in other businesses that offer kid-oriented classes. Our children also did a week of summer camp here with their friends and had an amazing time. We are very happy and have even fenced here ourselves when our aging bodies and kid-engulfed schedules will allow it. I can’t recommend the studio enough."
