Scarsdale Fencing Center

I knew Coach Achiko and the great things that he and his staff have accomplished in such a short period of time prior to My Daughter joining in January 2023. When we decided to make the switch to SFC in the middle of the current season after attending their Winter Training Camp, they welcomed us and made my daughters transition completely easy. This was the best decision that we made for our daughter in her young fencing journey.

Ive been a fencing parent for over ten years and have a lot of experience at the local, regional, national and international levels. After spending over a decade at another club, we recently made the switch to Scarsdale Fencing and Coach Achiko - and I only wish we had made this switch many years ago! What can I say that would convince you that this is one of the best clubs your fencer can ever be a part of, and if you want your fencer to excel in this sport, to grow, to love it, to want to fence everyday, that you should come to Scarsdale Fencing? From one parent to another: Coach Achiko and Coach Maksim have a PASSION for what they do. They love fencing; they love teaching kids fencing; they want to see your kids get better and better at fencing. This isnt a job for them; this is truly their lifes calling. In Coach Achikos words, every single one of the kids at the club are his fencing kids. You feel the sincerity of these words when hes running class, giving them a lesson, or coaching them stripside. There is an enthusiasm, an energy, a freshness to what they do. Its not just about winning medals, or making a name for the club - these coaches actually care about your kid and want to pull the best out of them. Theyre amazing. Ive seen a lot of coaches, but Ive never met someone like Coach Achiko. So if youre still on the fence about whether or not to come, this isnt a paid endorsement. I was on the fence about switching for so many years and I regret all the years I wasted being on the fence. Coach Achiko WILL make your fencer be the best that he or she can be. He cares. His club is professional, with incredible group classes, a supportive environment from coaches, kids, and parents alike, and a seriousness to what they do. Dont hesitate like I did. You wont regret it.
