We bought the Toyota of equipment and not the Lexus stuff. It wasn't that much and I didn't buy it all at the same time.

Nova fencing near the REI has good intro programs where you don’t need to buy gear.

Plenty of kids start after dropping out of other sports. My kid fenced at Fencing Sports Academy in Fairfax years ago.

My 8th grader just announced that he would really like to try fencing. We do not know anyone who fences. Do kids randomly pick up fencing in 8th grade? And if so, what is the best way to do that? We are in Arlington. Are there classes, etc., for teenagers who are just starting out? Any recommendations?
