Group Fencing Classes in Vancouver

Valour’s group fencing classes are designed for kids, teens, and adults who want to learn Olympic fencing in a structured, supportive environment.

Classes focus on real skill development — footwork, bladework, timing, and controlled sparring — so students build confidence and athletic ability while progressing week to week.

Whether you’re brand new or returning with experience, group training gives you the repetition, coaching feedback, and community to improve faster.

Who These Classes Are For

Group classes are a great fit for:

  • Kids & teens building coordination, discipline, and confidence

  • Adults looking for a challenging new sport and better fitness

  • Beginners who want clear instruction and a proven learning path

  • Competitive fencers who need structure, reps, and coaching support

(If you’re not sure where you fit, book a first class and Coach Luis will guide you.)

What You’ll Learn in Group Class

Training typically includes:

  • Footwork & movement (balance, distance, speed, control)

  • Bladework fundamentals (point control, attacks, parries)

  • Timing & decision-making (when to commit vs. bait)

  • Defence & counters (how to stay safe and score clean touches)

  • Structured sparring (apply skills in controlled bouts)

This isn’t random open fencing, it’s coached, progressive training.
