This camp is the last of four cumulative camps to be held at Grand Rapids Fencing Academy during the 2009-2010 fencing season. Designed for the intermediate and advanced fencer, it will focus on the preparation of youth fencers for the 2006 Summer Nationals; specifically, extensive training exercises and advanced strategy.

Both Maestros hold a BS degree in Physical Education from USSR State University and a Master’s degree in Fencing. They were Gold Medallists of the Soviet Union in 1985, medallists at the USSR Nationals from 1986-1989 and finalists at the World Cup and Student World Game competitions. Mikhail and Arkadiy have been developing fencing in the Grand Rapids Metro area since 1993. In March 2005, Maestro Mikhail was recognized as “Youth Developmental Coach of the Year” by United States Fencing Association.
