Brooklyn Fencing Center

What Brooklyn Fencing Center does

Brooklyn Fencing Center is a single-location, privately-held Olympic fencing training facility operating in Brooklyn, New York since 2003. The center provides structured fencing instruction across three primary age segments: children ages 7-9, juniors ages 10-17, and adults 18+, with programs ranging from beginner to intermediate skill levels. The core offering consists of group fencing classes with tiered subscription plans (Bronze at $260-$345/month and Silver at $388-$585/month), pay-per-class adult sessions at $45 each, private lessons, and seasonal summer camps priced at $555 per week or $145 per day.

The business operates on a direct-to-consumer model with enrollment managed through the company's website (brooklynfencing.com). Customers register for classes either online or at the physical facility located at 528 5th Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11215. The company differentiates itself through experienced Olympic-style coaches, a 20+ year operational history, and a community-oriented environment supporting both recreational and competitive fencing development. Summer camps run eight weekly sessions from July through August, providing seasonal revenue concentration.

Revenue mechanics are built on recurring monthly subscriptions for youth and junior programs, supplemented by usage-based adult class fees and seasonal camp revenue. The company employs 1-10 staff, operates with no disclosed external funding, and has no parent company or institutional investors. Distribution is entirely local to the New York Metro Area, with no evidence of geographic expansion or multi-location operations.
