Our Mission

The mission of Epic Fencing Club is to provide an unforgettable experience, and the commitment to the pursuit of excellence in fencing.

Art of Swordsmanship

The history of fencing parallels the evolution of civilization, back from the days of ancient Egypt and Rome, to the barbaric Dark Ages, to the fast and elegant Rennassiance, up to the modern, increasingly popular fencing of today. Fencing has always been regarded as more than a sport; it is an art form, an ancient symbol of power and glory, and a deeply personal, individual form of expression. Fencing is and always has been an intrinsic part of life, from the dueling and battle of yore to the widely captivating movies and facets of popular culture such as Zorro, The Princess Bride and Star Wars.
