The debonair art of fencing demands steel nerves and quick reflexes, much like other popular dueling sports, such as eating or balancing checkbooks. Explore a fast-paced way to settle differences with today's Groupon: for $45, you get a two-hour group introductory fencing class at The Fencing Center (a $90 value).
In business since 1981, the experienced instructors at The Fencing Center teach students well-timed parries, dodges, and thrusts as part of their fencing movement training. During the introductory class, teachers lay a solid foundation by leading their future skinnysword champions through the ins and outs of fencing, touching on essential skills such as leaping off of things and making witty remarks to defeated foes. Once students have grasped the basics, they then have a chance to try their hands at some sparring. Class sizes hover around 12–15, which is small enough to give students the chance to ask questions about the sport or discuss the possibility of getting a job as a musketeer.
