For All Ages:

Learn swordsmanship, fencing, Kendo, German Longsword and many other styles of sword arts at Guard Up! Family Swordsmanship in Burlington, MA.

Sick of treadmills and aerobics? Burn calories, beat stress and have fun doing something active that is also intellectually stimulating (fencing is often referred to as "Physical Chess"). Weekly classes as well as monthly events open to the public. Birthday parties, corporate retreats and summer camps are also offered.

Most necessary equipment provided. Classes and events for adults, teen and kids ages 4+. Conveniently located next to the Burlington Mall.

For Parents:

Guard Up! Youth and Teen Adventure Programs have curriculum and methods based on 3 important questions:   Why, How and What


WHY

Our goal is to help children and teens:

1)   Become well rounded and well balanced individuals

2)   Embrace learning as an exciting and lifelong endeavor

3)   Become self confident, responsible, and optimistic through creative play

 

HOW

We accomplish this by:

1)   “Unplugging” kids from the computer and motivating them to exercise and make friends in person

2)   Educating children in a manner that is exciting and imaginative… where exploration and possibilities are endless

3)   Providing an environment where a teen’s actions have consequences and where their decisions can make a difference

 

WHAT

We inspire your child by providing the following:

1)   A dynamic game filled with physical interaction and constant scenarios that require teamwork, communication and compromise

2)   Characters and creatures from real world mythology, literature and history which encourage kids to learn more in order to succeed at their quest

3)   An ongoing, interactive storyline in which children’s decisions change the direction and outcome of the story
