The Advanced Competitive program is tailored for the serious competitive fencer seeking to compete at the National and International level. Fencers may join the Advanced Competitive program after a minimum of 3-12 months at the Intermediate level (exceptions can be made at the coach's discretion).
The Advanced Competitive program offers longer practice hours and more practice days (up to four days weekly).
2-4 private lessons per week are strongly recommended for fencers at this level. The Advanced Competitive program includes footwork, conditioning, tactical and technical exercises, as well as individual yearly training plans to set and meet competitive goals.
At this level, fencers should have their own equipment that is suited to competition.
