We are delighted to launch our next 4 week block of FREE community sessions for children and young people at our dedicated space in West Bowling Green Street, Leith.
Monday 2nd March: Girls Only Session for 8-14 year olds. 5.45-7pm
Friday 6th March: Mixed class for 8-12 year olds. 1.15-2.15pm
Come and learn the core skills of this Olympic sport with some of Scotland’s finest coaches in Edinburgh’s only dedicated fencing centre in Leith.
We will guide you through the essentials in movement and sword skills initially using plastic fencing equipment (as it is lighter and requires less protective equipment, so the learning curve is quicker) before we move on to metal fencing. By the end of the 4 weeks your child will have a great understanding of how to attack and defend, move like a fencer and know the rules and etiquette of this amazing sport.
From there they can take away their experience, knowing they’ve tried one of the Olympic’s original sports or they can take the next step and join our development classes as part of our regular membership, fully equipped with the skills to take it to the next level.
Our thanks to The Edinburgh Solar Co-operative and Sported Scotland for their support.

Please note that if you have already attended one of our free blocks you can re-register but priority will be given to those who haven’t had a chance to try it yet and that the curriculum is the same each block.
