Brooklyn Fencing Center 528 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215

"My son loves training at Brooklyn Fencing Center. He takes lessons there several times a week and bouts at least once per week. He gets a lot of intense physical and mental exercise every time he practices there, and I believe it improves his focus, concentration and self-confidence. The coaches and staff are excellent. I highly recommend this club to everyone."

"Brooklyn Fencing Center was the club that suit my training demands better when I started fencing. As an adult fencer the convenient hours and experienced coaches really helped me improve on my skills and level. Rolando Balboa is the best coach I have ever had, adapting lessons to my needs and pushing me gently enough to get to the level I aspired. I would recommend fencers at any level, whether fencing to compete or for personal fulfillment to make Brooklyn Fencing Center their main training and fencing spot."

"Brooklyn Fencing Center is like a family, comprised of members from all walks of life. You’ll feel welcomed as soon as you walk in — whether you’re a national team member or have just decided to check out the sport for the first time. The coaches and staff are exceptional, and attract a number of visiting international and NCAA athletes. Most importantly, Head Coach Rolando is truly passionate about what he does, and is determined to help each and every fencer achieve their goals, all while maintaining a great sense of humor!"

"Brooklyn Fencing Center is my second home thanks to the wonderful and supportive staff. In my freshmen year of high school I struggled to transition to the new environment that required confidence. With the help of Rolando (the head coach) I was able to gain that and learn so many more life lessons, meanwhile becoming a stronger competitive fencer. I started off fencing in the beginning of spring and by summer I was fencing at Nationals!"

"Brooklyn Fencing Center offers world-class fencing lessons to people of all ages. The instructors are well credentialed competitors themselves and do an amazing job at getting new students into the sport.The facility is spacious, clean and appropriately organized. After much research, we had the pleasure of enrolling our niece and watching weekly as she developed her social and sporting skills. One of the highlights of attending was the monthly competitions with students of the same age."
