New York Fencing Academy NYFA-BK

We have tried many different sports for our kids in many years, but never got such a positive response from them practicing fencing, they are always eager to go and develop there skills, i highly recommend NYFA. Many thanks to them team, Yaroslav, Mikhail, Marina and Anton.

My son attended his first fencing camp with NYFA this last July 26th to August 4th, 2022. He was very excited and nervous at the same time because he said he will be fencing the best fencers from all over the USA and some Internationally. And he was not wrong! This camp was superb. My son enjoyed every minute of it. They worked him really hard everyday to build his stamina. And he fenced his heart out with 3 Practice times daily. He said he made new friends and at the same time learned a lot. He will be going back…

This is my son's second year attending the summer camp. He had an amazing experience, worked hard, had fun and made really good friends. The coaches are top notch and some of the best in the country. He'll definitely go again next year!

Such a great experience for my son. Learning new things from great fencing coaches was huge for him. It was a good experience to improve his English (French, primary language). I recommend this camp to all fencers. Thank's again!!

This was the third year of camp for my 13 y.o. son and the first one for my 10 y.o.

My 13yo greatly enjoyed his time spent with friends and fencing for the third year in a row, however, my younger son grew homesick right away, which is not all surprising since he spent almost 2 years at home learning remotely. His coaches and counselors put a great deal of effort into guiding his first steps being away from home. Happy to say, by the end of the session he made many good friends and was looking forward to attending this camp next year.

The coaches are incredibly dedicated. All kids receive a great deal of attention and instruction. Sportsmanship, resilience, good manners and discipline are instilled and encouraged. The sense of camaraderie is striking and omnipresent among the camp attendees. Needless to say, the coaches and counselors do lead by example.

Also of note is that the camp is attended by many strong fencers. Both of my sons gained great experience fencing their peers.

Surrounding nature and the campgrounds are beautiful. The facilities are well kept. The camp cafeteria menu is full of nutritionally dense choices.

Once again, a shout-out to all the coaches, counselors,  fencers/ friends and visiting parents who shared this adventure with my kids and made it a memorable one...  the list of your names is long!  You guys are doing an amazing job!
