My daughter has been a student of Coach Achiko Lortkipanidze for a number of years and we are very excited to follow him to his new club. SFC is beautiful airy sunny new facility with everything a new or an experienced fencers can wish for - wonderful coaches with the track record of national & international competitions results, solid track record students recruited by top colleges, and a nurturing atmosphere our kids need.

A ++ facility with dedicated instructors and staff. Maksim and Achiko are amazing. They break down every detail and make it very easy to understand. My son is always excited after his lessons. Best thing: personalized attention, not a "factory" where you are just another nameless face in a large clinic session. Two enthusiastic thumbs up

Our fencer has been training with Coach Achiko for 6 years and we couldn’t be happier with Scarsdale Fencing Center. The facilities, staff, and fencing community of parents and families is wonderful! The club itself is modern and easy to access by car (and metronorth, which is great for older students who can travel alone). Coaches Achiko and Maksim are top-notch and provide excellent coaching during private lessons and at tournaments. Their holiday camps and group classes are a great for beginners and elite fencers alike. The club is welcoming of all fencers and the coaches take pride in supporting each individual fencer to be their best.

We just had winter camp and my daughter loved it.

Exceptional youth program, specializing in saber fencing. Coaches Achiko and Maksim have years of teaching and fencing experience. They have produced world-class level fencers while making this complex and mentally challenging sport both fun and interesting for kids. The studio is very nice and clean.

Scarsdale Fencing Center is a modern, top tier club, with amazing coaches running an incredible program. My daughter has been Coach Achiko's student since she was 9 years old (for over 3 years). He's incredibly nurturing, extremely proactive, and has an amazing relationship with her (she refers to him as her "Fencing Dad"). All of the coaches at the club care greatly about their students in a holistic sense, making sure they're not just physically, but also mentally, prepared for the challenges of the competitive sport of fencing. Our family is extremely happy to be a part of this club and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in fencing.

Wonderful facility with attentive and dedicated instructors and staff. My son always leaves enthusiastic and with a smile on his face. Instructors Maksim and Achiko are amazing and dedicated instructors

Good fencing club!

My daughter started earlier this year, and she is having a lot of fun! Her coach Achiko is one of the best Saber coaches, and the other SFC coaches are also outstanding. All the coaches are experienced and great with kids who may be shy or anxious about starting a new sport.

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. The coaches had numerous fencers in team USA, winners of National and international competitions, and currently coaching in Yale. Thoughtful approach to all students, great spirit and support.
