Whether you are an experienced fencer, a beginner, or the parent of an enthusiastic young swordsman, we offer a safe, exciting, and fun way to experience the sport according to well-established standards, rules, and regulations. Our coaches are all experienced competitors, several of whom who have earned international and national medals and rankings.

Our classes and "open" fencing take place in community centers, schools, and fitness clubs in a variety of locations throughout the greater Seattle/Tacoma area. Currently our classes are available in Issaquah, Maple Valley, Federal Way, Sammamish, and Tacoma, although we are always considering new locations. We also host tournaments and clinics, announced at various times throughout the year. Our fencers compete frequently in all three fencing "weapons": foil, saber, and epee.

Our fencers range in age from eight to nearly 90, and include a diverse range of skills and accomplishments at all ages and in both genders. We also teach and offer training for disabled athletes, and we even have a teen fencer who competes-and has medaled-nationally in wheelchair foil and epee.

Fencing is one of the fastest-growing sports in the USA, both for competitive and recreational athletes. Traditionally a European sport, countries from six continents now compete in fencing at the Olympic Games and China, Canada, Venezuela, Japan, and the USA, among others, are all serious world contenders. At the Athens 2004 Olympic Games, U.S. saber fencer and Oregonian Mariel Zagunis became the first American in 100 years to win an Olympic gold medal.
