What to expect

New to fencing and curious about what to expect? The first class at Apex Fencing Academy is free so there’s no commitment to try. The only things required are long pants, some indoor shoes and lots of energy!

Our coaches will explain the basics of fencing and provide a bit of history. You’ll learn that there are three different weapons (foil, sabre and epee) and even get to hold them if you want to feel the difference. They will explain the basic rules of each so you can understand how they are each different.

The idea is to get an introduction. The sport of fencing involves strategy, quick thinking, fast reflexes and the ability to change and react to a wide range of situations. It’s also a great workout!

After you’ve had your first taste of fencing, we hope you will join the Apex community.
