"On my way to the course, I had to calm myself down, since I thought there is no way that anything could be as wonderful as I imagine. At the end of the course, I had to convince myself it was all true. Just like I imagined. Wonderful people, mentors, coaches, I couldnt ask for anything more. THANK YOU."

Comments from previous international students

Miguel Rodriguez, originally from Mexico, now Sweden full Master of the Academy. "My contact with the BAF and all the members I have met . . . has been one of the most rewarding experiences I have had."	Yuichi Ito from Japan Diploma Foil "All the instructors, especially Philip and Andrew this year, taught me both enthusiastically and devotedly"
Stuart Lee from the USA Diploma Foil "I keep coming back to the coaches courses -a great value because they are so well organized and well taught - very fulfilling from a learning standpoint! "	Andrew Wong from Hong Kong Level 3 Foil "I traveled and fenced from East to West, worked with numbers of fencing master around the world. Finally I found BAF is the best of the best fencing education institute, not because they gave me an award, but their take to heart teaching method inspired me to keep on taking the challenge, both as a fencer and a coach. Denstone is simply the cradle of classical fencing and the explorer of modern fencing. I love returning in the near future to meet all masters and fellows who helped me a lot during my examination."
