In 2010, Judy opened ICFC to share with the community her lifetime's worth of dueling wisdom, offering instruction in all three styles of fencing: foil, epee, and saber.

This was a lot of fun. Judy made everyone welcome, young and old, then gave us a brief history of the sport and her experience. After some basic training I was able to spar with my son in full protective gear. Great value for money.
