About the company
The word Forte (pronounced fôr-tā) means "strong."
We strive to be strong of heart, strong of spirit, and strong of mind.
We are a community for fencers ages 8 to 80. Our coaches come from a variety of life and fencing experiences. We started Forte as a community outreach program primarily for 6th, 7th, and 8th graders, and are now conveniently located to many local fencers.
We invite all levels to learn the Olympic sport of fencing.
We do not discriminate against age or athletic ability.

Coach Sam Guttman
Coach Sam fenced epee for Randolph High School’s varsity team for three years under Coach Jaime Ayala.
