Sheridan Fencing Academy

We had to share this one! One of our adult class fencers, Alina, put together a fun in-house tournament just for the group, and she even hand-painted her own medals for the occasion! It was such a great, community-driven idea and a wonderful reminder of why we love this class so much!

Here are the highlights:

Paul Rosenthal — Gold Medal
John Lee — Silver Medal
Patricia Belmont Luna — Bronze Medal

Great job, everyone, and a huge thank you to Alina for organizing such a fun event!

Congrats to Arthur on reaching Level V and Henry on reaching Level IV!

Congratulations to all of our fencers who competed at Summer Nationals! This tournament brings together the top fencers from across the entire country. Our athletes went toe to toe with some of the best in the nation. Here are the highlights:

Michael Barenboym — 5th place, Div III Men's Saber
Paul Rosenthal — 8th place, Vet-70 Men's Saber
Lila Paul — 12th place, Junior Women's Saber

Great job, everyone!

Congrats to our newest Level IV fencer, Lisa!

Congratulations to Leone on officially reaching Level II!

Congratulations to all who competed this past weekend at the Manhattan Fencing Center Saber Youth Liberty Cup in Englewood, NJ! We've been seeing incredible progress from our fencers this season, and this weekend they really showed it on the strip. Here are the highlights:

Ayaki Brewster — Gold Medal, Y-12 Women's Saber; 8th place, Y-14 Women's Saber
Clara Otazu — Silver Medal, Y-12 Women's Saber

With the weather turning warm, it was once again time this past weekend for the Annual Sheridan Fencing BBQ! As always, it was wonderful to bring so many members of our community together for fun, food… and water balloons! Big thanks to Coach Lou who manned the grills heroically, in spite of some very assertive winds! All of us feel very lucky to have such a great community!
