Participants were ages 5 -18, plus a mum and a grandmother joined-in too!
There were exactly enough jackets, masks, gloves and swords to go around and the feedback was positive!
Here are some photos of the taster followed by info on how YOU can book a fencing taster:
To organise a fencing taster:
Van Diemen Fencing Club can come to your group, or you can use our venue. To use our venue, an additional fee of $25 per hour will be charged to cover hire expenses.
Maximum people per taster is 12, for practicality and equipment.
Depending on numbers present, travel distance and so on, tasters will generally cost each participant $8.50 per hr and they will receive a participation certificate.
To receive a precise idea of costs, e-mail the club and tell them:
- How many people will be participating?
- Would you like the taster held at our venue or your own (we are at the YMCA in Glenorchy)?
- Where is your venue, if you wish to have the taster there?
- How long do you wish the taster to run for? (Minimum 1 Hr; 90 minutes is usually a good ammount of time for the basics)
- What ages will be attending the taster?
