Manhattan Fencing of Waldwick

A Wonderful Experience at Manhattan Fencing Club!
I can't express enough how thrilled we are with our experience at Manhattan Fencing Club in Waldwick, New Jersey! My son has been part of this incredible community for a while now, and every moment has been filled with growth, excitement, and joy.
From the moment we walked through the doors, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism. The coaches at Manhattan Fencing Club are truly dedicated to their students. Their expertise and passion for the sport shine through in every training session. They not only provide excellent instruction but also foster a supportive and encouraging environment that has helped my son build confidence both on and off the piste.
What impresses me the most is how wonderfully organized everything is. The scheduling, equipment availability, and communication with parents are all handled... Read more >

Manhattan fencing is the best sabre club in the country and I am so excited that they opened up this location. All the coaches are very good with kids of all ages and they are extremely experienced with a great reputation in the fencing community. My children initially tried all 3 weapons and picked sabre since it’s fast paced and more dynamic/fun (each bout/tournament also takes a lot less time than Epee or Foil which is a big advantage for parents!). During high school junior year my child is already recruited to fence as NCAA athlete at a great college and the MFC club/coaches have been providing the best training and extremely encouraging and supportive throughout the process. My children have been fencing since they were young and I also like the fact that Manhattan has 2 other locations including Manhattan (b/w 5th and 6th Ave and 37th street with easy access via public...

My daughter and I love the Manhattan Fencing Club in Waldwick. She has been with the club for more than 3 years. The club is very clean and organized. It's easy to book lessons online. Most importantly, the close friendships among fencers across different ages, the strong coaching team from Manhattan Fencing, and the connection to former Olympians make this club the best choice for us. The fencers are very supportive of each other, and the parents are also resourceful. This bond is more valuable for her than earning an A rating. Read more >

This club was the BFC owned by coach Oleg Stetsiv. Oleg produced National, International and Olympic saber champions. As a parent of a daughter who'd been training with Oleg, I was worried when he was moving to Florida. Oleg assured us that we would be in good hands once the new club took over. Oleg didn't disappoint us!! The new owner is the legendary MFC. We were excited because MFC has an established reputation of producing numerous National, International and Olympic saber champions. Their fencers get recruited by the best universities in the country.
In September 2024 when MFC took over they brought in fantastic coaches Dmitry Boyko and Maxim P. with proven track records.
At October NAC 2024 in Atlantic City MFC fencers did fantastic, claiming numerous podium spots between men and women. The coaches were flying all over the place to strip coach their kids and did a... Read more >
