Why Fence?

The motor activity of fencing is naturally geared towards improving fitness and health. Besides, fencing is really fun.

Young children have a natural interest in swords but come to find fencing's sheer pleasure with its outbursts of energy, high level of arousal, and a feeling of gaining competence. A fencing bout with its mixture of victory and defeat, creates tense and exciting situations in which ambition, courage and decision making or tactical cleverness are key.

Fencing is a fast, versatile, game of skills, for many levels of abilities.
