Testimonials
“My 6YO daughter has been training with the club for the last 4 months and her experience has been great. The coaches are patient, caring and great with the kids. The coaching seems superb and my kid has enjoyed every session she’s had at the club.”
“BBFC is an amazing fencing club with awesome coaches and owner Dan. All the coaches really care and nurture each kid to be their best. My middle school daughter has been fencing for 1.5 years and has really enjoyed the sport and made some friends. BBFC has helped my daughter to build more confidence and independence. If you are thinking for your child joining fencing please consider BBFC.”
“Brooklyn Bridge Fencing Club is an amazing place. My 12 year old son joined the club almost two years ago. At that time he had never committed to an organized sport; he struggled mightily with inattention and frustration tolerance. BBFC has helped him become more responsible, focused, and self aware. The coaches are fantastic, they are patient and consistent, and they create a warm and respectful community. My son is more confident and can both win and lose with grace. He happily attends class 3x a week. I can’t say enough good things about BBFC and recommend it highly.”
