About
We offer fencing classes and squads from beginner to elite level. Our dedicated fencing gym is open all week for classes, bouting, and private coaching.
While VRI does train Olympic fencers and pentathletes, we are also proud of the achievements of our youngest members. Through classes such as VRI Swordplay, children as young as 7 learn new skills, improve their fitness and develop self-confidence through fencing.
VRI’s intermediate squads for teenagers and adults are also a unique way to learn fencing in a group. We offer much more than free bouting, and coach intermediate to elite fencers in dedicated epée squads throughout the week, as well as providing access to private lessons.
