Intro Packages
Begin your journey into fencing the right way – laying a solid foundation is key. Attempting a group class without grasping the fundamentals would leave your fencer bewildered and adrift in confusion, causing frustration not just for them, but for fellow students as well. The optimal approach entails commencing with private lessons, where one can meticulously absorb the essential rules, master the art of parrying and attacking, setting the stage for seamless integration into group classes. This method ensures a thorough understanding from the outset, paving the path for a fulfilling and successful fencing experience.

Testimonials
Manhattan Fencing Center is the number one saber club in the country. We are so glad to join the club. Whether you are a new learner or a teenager who wants to improve your saber level, it is your best choice.
The facilities at MFC are well organized, super clean, and safe; the students are encouraging of one another and very helpful.
MFC is a fantastic fencing club where my kids have been fencing/training since 2017. The facility is clean, bright, and spacious. My kids have trained with all the saber coaches who are all phenomenal and outstanding and in particular, with Sergey Isayenko, who is truly a patient, dedicated, and passionate coach. Sergey is personable where he cares about the development and improvement of each student and he always motivates my kids to do better at each lesson. There is a wonderful family community at MFC and additionally, a great comradery and sportsmanship amongst all the fencers at the club.
Our family’s experience with Manhattan Fencing Center, and with our son’s coach, Volodymyr Lukashenko, has been amazing on so many levels. Our son suffered from low muscle tone as a pre-schooler and had physical, occupational and speech therapy. Fencing has provided a discipline and practice that cemented his progress and boosted his confidence on every level. Now he is taller than his mother, strong, coordinated, and thriving on the competition that fencing provides. Coach Volodymyr has been with him every step of the way and we are so thankful for everything he has done to patiently encourage and challenge our son reach his full potential … to take himself seriously as an athlete. Thank you Manhattan Fencing Center!
