What People Are Saying About SFC

Scarsdale fencing center is a bright modern fencing club with top notch instructors. My two boys have been coached by Achiko Lortkipanidze for 6 years and they have grown from beginner fencers to top ranked in the country and being recruited for Div 1 colleges. More importantly than their success is how Coach Achicko supports them even when they fail and ensures they keep their love of the sport.
Really beautiful Fencing Hall with state-of-the-art equipment. Allot of natural light. World-class coaching by both Maestros. Very nice people and great fencers.
My two sons went for a trial class at this new Fencing Center. Coach Archil and Coach Maksim are renowned experts and fencing coaches and they also are warm and personable. My sons had a blast and will be attending their summer camp and take classes. The space has beautiful light and state of the art equipment and floors. I highly recommend this center.

So glad that we have this new fencing club open in Westchester! Great coaching, outstanding program and classes for saber fencing. Kids of all ages can receive world class coaching.

We just had winter camp and my daughter loved it.
Good fencing club!
Scarsdale Fencing Center is a top notch fencing academy dedicated to saber. Location is accessible from NYC by train and there’s parking aswll if you’re driving. Coach Achiko and Coach Maksim truly care about their students and development. My daughter has been with Coach Achiko for a few years now and we travel between NYC and Scarsdale just to see him! He cares deeply about his students and is extremely communicative with parents. He goes out of his way to make busy schedules work so that students get his time. We have full trust in the teaching and coaching at Scarsdale Fencing Center and LOVE the coaches!
