Michael Marx teaches an Epee class for our Fencers!

The Phoenix Center was very happy to have Michael Marx come out again to our area and work with our athletes. Michael, a 5 time Olympian, is one of the top coaches in the country. He worked with our students on “The Drill”, taught us how to use preparations in epee and showed us a great drill for problem solving! After that he watched all of our kids fence, analyzed them and offer them advice to improve their fencing. If that wasn’t enough, he also got up and fenced some of our fencers and then the folks who stuck around got to go through a line drill with him. Everyone who attended had a great time and Michael told us that this was a great area for fencing! He really liked everyone who was here and he told us that we had a great group that we were working with. Great job to everyone who attended the clinic!
