MY FIRST FENCING TOURNAMENT WAS GREAT!

Jul 02, 2024

Last month, I wrote about how you should try fencing. Now, I am going to tell you about my fencing club, German Fencing Academy. I’ll also share my experience of winning a tournament!

My older brother recently interviewed my academy’s coach, Jens Stephan. He was born in Germany, where he was introduced to fencing by a friend. He started GFA in Tucson because there were not many fencing clubs in Arizona. When he started the club, he started small at the Oro Valley Rec Center. Now, the GFA is at the Tucson Mall.
