Foremost, fencing should be fun and enjoyable. Once your child has had some experience and is interested in pursuing competitive fencing, we offer programs that cater to all commitment levels and competitive aspirations.
Located in Calgary, Epic Fencing Club prides itself on providing a positive, inclusive, and engaging community for fencers of all ages and skill levels. Our world-class coaching staff, volunteers, and administrative team members are dedicated to helping our fencers achieve their goals and have fun while doing so.
Epic Fencing Club offers programs that focus on all-around athletic abilities, fencing-specific footwork, blade work, and strategies. Our fencers learn the value of hard work, teamwork, and sportsmanship in a supportive team environment. Whether you are a beginner looking to learn the basics or an experienced fencer aiming for Olympic success, Epic has something for everyone.
At Epic Fencing Club, there is no annual membership fee. Regular classes are billed monthly, and pricing depends on how many classes are attended each week. Fencers who attend occasionally may opt to pay a drop-in fee per class or event when applicable. Additional costs may apply for private lessons, camps, equipment, and tournaments.
Fencing is a safe sport, with equipment designed to protect fencers from injuries. Compared to other Olympic sports, fencing has a low injury rate. It is not unusual to get some bruises on the arms and legs, but serious injuries are rare.
Any age is a good age to start fencing, and it can be a lifelong sport. The earliest age to start fencing lessons and programs at Epic is 5 years old. Depending on the discipline, there are different rules and equipment. We recommend youth start in Foil fencing, and teens and adults start in Epee fencing.
To book lessons or register for classes at Epic Fencing Club, all classes, and lessons are booked through our internal booking software and CRM called Amilia. Parents can bookmark this website for easy access to register for classes. For those interested in competitive fencing, we recommend enrolling in a beginner program to start and then progressing to more advanced programs as interest and skill level grow.
