Following the course you may participate in the electric fencing circuit within the club and/or join the Intermediate Course, enter competitions or take up the other weapons fenced by the club.
The course is taught by experienced, qualified fencing coaches.

The course costs £70 for 10 weeks and includes club membership and use of all equipment (mask, weapon, jacket and glove).
What you need to bring
Please bring clean sports shoes and comfortable clothing. You’ll need to be able to freely move and stretch your legs so tracksuit trousers are best. Shorts or skirts should not be worn. You might want to bring a bottle of water.
