Training is focused on the techniques of fencing with Epee.

I started fencing when I was about ten. I don’t remember having a reason, but I’ve loved it ever since. Fencing is a great sport to keep you in shape, and it's also great fun. I’ve had a blast going to the different tournaments, and different places. Fencing is a great experience, and I’m really happy that I started.

Weapons

Foil

The foil is the modern version of the original practice weapon for dueling sword. The valid target for foil is the torso. Valid hits can only be scored with the point of the blade.

Epee

The epee is the modern version of the historical dueling sword. The Epee is heavier than the foil and has a rigid
bi-angular blade. The valid target is the entire body, and hits are made with the point only.

Sabre

The sabre is the modern version of the cavalry sword. Hits can be scored with the point or the cutting edges on the target area, which is anywhere above the waist including head and arms.
