Testimonials

It’s so great to have a place that is equally fun, safe, and responsible with the kids.”

Kimberly Harding -

All of my children have taken classes at Guard Up and loved the experience. The group of homeschoolers we join weekly to participate in these swordsmanship classes all have told me that each week their children can’t wait for the next class. My boys aren’t interested in taking any other organized classes and several of their friends too, have said they are only interested in classes offered at Guard Up. The place is warm and inviting, and the instructors are terrific! They really know how to play with the kids and teach them through interactive games that thoroughly engage their minds and bodies. The exercise they get is a big part of why we sign up every winter. These kids are getting an hour or more of intense cardiovascular exercise, the instructors keep them running nonstop, and they love it! Thank you Guard Up!”

Historical Weapon

More versatile than our Fencing classes, Youth Historical Weapon (ages 6-10) and Teen Historical Weapon (ages 11-16) teaches kids and teens sword and arms training from the medieval and renaissance ages. Students learn historically interpreted techniques in German long sword, Japanese sword, rapier and dagger, sword and shield and even pole arms! This is the perfect activity for any student who is interested in history, strategies and tactics.

Not only that, parents will appreciate our “Family Friendly Environment” with the following:

A Leadership Program for kids and teens that helps develop self confidence and social skill.
Our unique Merit Awards motivate students to practice and pay attention in class.
Instructors that encourage asking questions and the discovery of answers
Students practice one-on-one sparring and group drills in our safe, yet exciting class.
