Salle Holyrood is a registered charity, based in Edinburgh. We run fencing sessions for complete beginners to elite athletes, from the age of 8 upwards and we now have a dedicated fencing centre in the heart of the city.
Our coaching team has a total of 50 years’ experience and includes British national team coaches and fencers. Club nights give opportunities to train alongside and spar with current and past members of the British and Scottish Cadet, Junior and Senior national teams.
Most importantly, we are proud of being a friendly, supportive and welcoming club that gives children and adults across Edinburgh access to this incredible, Olympic sport, helping them to gain essential life skills and reach their potential.
You are welcome to come and give us a try – just contact us to arrange a visit.
