What to wear and what to bring: After registering online or by mail, show up to the class in tennis/athletic shoes, a t-shirt and sweat pants (NO SHORTS and NO SANDALS!) An athletic supporter (a cup) is MANDATORY for any sparring or dueling! Purchasing your Own Fencing Mask should be among your first investments! We suggest, and use, Triplette Competition Arms masks. The 183 model is a great starter mask and the 1999 is a wee bit better; it comes with a removable bib. For those who have never purchased a mask, most young people fit into a medium or a large; small are for the very young and extra large are for those with gargantuan heeds! A stout pair of gloves is also a good idea. We use TCA dueling gloves found here. (model# 2239-B). |
