World Fencing Day 2020 FIT Families tell what fencing means to them. https://vimeo.com/457391496 #fitfencer #fitfencers #worldfencingday2020 #fencingapassionafamily #fencingday #usafencing https://www.instagram.com/p/CFEuGP3JWhY/?igshid=g6iv1oj09wtf
World Fencing Day September 12, 2020 Helen Tan says.... “ "I’ve tried a lot of sports when I was a kid, but none of them stood out to me as much as fencing did. Fencing is a really special sport. It challenges me both physically and mentally and never ceases to show me my capabilities as an athlete. Over 9 years at the Fencing Institute of Texas, my interest in fencing slowly became my passion, and my teammates gradually became my family. My fencing coach at FIT, Coach Volodymyr Yefimov, has been with me throughout my entire athletic career. He taught me to love the sport and to ultimately learn from it. Under his guidance, I’ve had incredible opportunities to compete for Team USA and achieve high rankings both nationally and internationally. However, my support system extends beyond my coach to encompass my entire FIT family, a family that is equally bonded by both their love for fencing and their encouragement for each other." -- Helen Tan” #fitfencer #fitfencers #worldfencingday2020 #fencingday #fencingapassionafamily (at Fencing Institute of Texas, Inc.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE5u8ngJ8Vl/?igshid=7k0708uxcfpu
World Fencing Day September 12th, 2020 Sarah Low says.... “ My time at the Fencing Institute of Texas was crucial to the development of my work ethic. When I first started fencing in 2012, I felt that there was a large learning curve ahead of me, but Coach Volodymyr’s dedication and my teammate camaraderie made it possible for me to grow to love the sport and become acclimated. Traveling from tournament to tournament was also an experience that I will never forget. Even in college, I consider my years of fencing at FIT to have been an important part of my personal development.” #fitfencer #fitfencers #worldfencingday2020 #fencingday #FencingAPassionAFamily (at Fencing Institute of Texas, Inc.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE5tzGHJBMC/?igshid=ts1l1s4yb1j0
World Fencing Day 2020 September 12, 2020 Srija Atluri writes, “The first time I learned about fencing I saw it on a tv show. I really wanted to try it and I grew to like the Sport. Fencing at FIT has given me many good, lifelong friends and memories. Everyone in the club is very friendly and welcoming. Over all FIT is a great place to be. FIT is second home to me. Ms. Brenda’s advise is very very valuable to me whenever I need. I am blessed to have an excellent coach like Mr. Voldymyr.” #fitfencer #fitfencers #fitfencingfamily #worldfencingday2020 #fencingday #FencingAPassionAFamily https://www.instagram.com/p/CE3KYknpSLV/?igshid=mliwyehgpkgj
WORLD FENCING DAY September 12, 2020 Sharon Low writes, “Throughout my past eight years at the Fencing Institute of Texas, I have been fortunate enough to not only create lifelong friendships, but also pursue my passion: fencing. The staff, from the club owner Mrs. Waddoups to the foilist instructor Coach Volodymyr, have been truly amazing and supportive. Along with perfecting each student's skill, the staff makes an effort to create a friendly, welcoming environment in which students are encouraged to make mistakes and learn those mistakes. For me, FIT has been a safe space where I can experiment with my fencing, discovering my strengths along with my weaknesses in the process. FIT has been an environment where I can connect with others that share my passion, which has led me to form inseparable friendships. The Fencing Institute of Texas has changed my life significantly and for that, I am immensely grateful.” #fitfencer #fitfencers #FITFencingFamily #fencingday #worldfencingday2020#FencingAPassionAFamily (at Fencing Institute of Texas, Inc.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE3HTj2Juab/?igshid=st9m8tjw42ft
For World Fencing Day September 12, 2020 Pearl Low writes: “Both of our daughters started fencing eight years ago at Fencing Institute of Texas. Since then, there wasn’t a single day where we were not thankful for how much this sport has changed our daughters' perspectives of life!!! Yes, you heard me! Sounds really epic, doesn't it?! But it is true, FENCING has not only improved the level of focus, commitment and dedication in all aspects of our daughters' lives, but fencing has also taught our daughters how not to give up so easily when they face any obstacle in life. Most importantly, they have learned to NEVER do anything half way or else you will never reach your goal, big or small. FIT is a safe place for our daughters to thrive at their potentials, to set their goals, to challenge themselves, and with patience, dedication and a lot of hard work, it has really brought up the very best in them. Not to mention, FIT coaches are very committed to fencers of all ages, and the fencers themselves very much value the friendship and bonding they have established over the years at FIT! FIT is almost like a second home to them!!! Because of this strong sense of unity, the older fencers are always there to help the new members at FIT. We are just very grateful we found this place through our daughter's friend Helen!! We will miss the founder of this place Mr. Ovy and Mrs. Brenda, and our awesome and dedicated coach Volodymyr very much once our second daughter goes to college.” #fitfencer #fitfencers #worldfencingday2020 #fencingday #FencingAPassionAFamily #FITFamilyFencers (at Fencing Institute of Texas, Inc.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE3Gr_NJtJU/?igshid=1j4ddcdpfgv8v
