Subscribe to our news feed for up to date information.
You will learn the basic techniques & tactics of fencing whilst developing physical fitness & improving mental agility.
On completing the course you will have built up enough technique to take on our regular members.
Your first 2 weeks of fencing after the course are included in the fee.
Many of our long standing fencers started with one of our beginners courses, and some of our beginners have competed in, and won medals at novice competitions.
A course of 10 classes, and costs just £99.
All coaching and fencing equipment is supplied. (Please select options when booking)
No previous experience is necessary.
Minimum age : 14.
All you need to bring is tracksuit and trainers (changing facilities available) and a bottle of water (it gets quite warm).
Minimal fitness required, as fencing is largely a skill based sport … but if you want to get competitive, you will get fit.
We are also a very sociable club, and all attendees, including beginners, are welcome in the pub after training.
We understand that circumstances change, so if you find you cannot attend, let us know as quickly as possible and we will attempt to accommodate you on a later course.
If, due to circumstances beyond our control, we are unable to run the course as expected, you will have the choice of a full refund or deferring until the course is next run.
**We ask for your Gender as we need to ensure we have the correct safety equipment, which is different for Male and Female fencers, as outlined by the sport’s international governing body. See FIE Rule M25.4c for details
