GWEFC will be holding an introduction to fencing course on Thursday 9th February. Give us a couple of hours of your time and we will teach you how to fence.  Bring a friend - it's better to learn together. There is no charge for this course.

All specialist equipment will be supplied by the club - this will be worn over your own clothes.  Wear clothes you will be comfortable working out in - but no shorts due to safety concerns.  You need to bring some indoor sports shoes with non-marking soles.  The building has changing rooms and showers available.
