Jonathan Brawn has asked us to share the following message:

"Hello all! Are you or someone you know interested in coaching epee at Brooke High School in Boston this year? We are starting a varsity program and looking for someone with enough knowledge to get us up and running in those weapons. Don't need to be a pro-level coach, just need to be experienced and enthusiastic.

If you're interested or know someone who might be, please message Jonathan Brawn on facebook and we can discuss salary and commitments for the season. Thanks!"

It's been a while since we've posted any new material for CFC's Remote Training Program. We've prepared a short (12-minute) video to share a very useful fencing “mantra,” or mnemonic, which was coined by Maitre Michel Sebastiani:

DPTS: “Distance – Patience – Timing – Simplicity”
