New to fencing? Start here
If you are a beginner, we invite you to start with one of the following options:
- A free introductory class, or
- Choose a Member Pass and enjoy lower prices on all group training sessions and private lessons.
Our free Beginner Class is designed to provide a safe and structured introduction to Olympic épée fencing. Participants learn the basic rules, movement, equipment, and training format under the supervision of our coaches.
The free Beginner Class is available once per participant and takes place on selected Saturdays scheduled by the coaching staff. Available dates will be announced through the registration system.
During the class, you will:
- Learn the basic principles of épée fencing
- Become familiar with fencing equipment and safety procedures
- Practice fundamental footwork and blade movements
- Experience the structure of a regular training session
- Discuss suitable next steps with your coach
After completing the class, you may choose a Member Pass and receive lower member pricing on group training sessions and private lessons.
Your coach can also help you select the most appropriate training option based on your age, experience, goals, and availability.
Joining the club begins with a short registration form.
This first step allows us to understand the athlete’s age, experience level, goals, and availability, so we can properly match each member with the right training group and schedule.
By providing this information, you help us ensure a safe, structured, and effective training environment — one where athletes progress at the right pace and train alongside others at a similar level.
