Wellington Swords Club
Wellington based fencing for all ages, for fun or competition, we can offer a wide range of options. We cater for fencers from 6 years upwards, right through to our masters and veterans, in foil and epee.
Our classes combine group and individual lessons, providing rewarding experiences for the fun fencer and opportunities to progress for those with a more competitive bent. We offer tuition to take a fencer from beginner through to international competition on the world stage.
We provide all the equipment needed for beginners to start, and source equipment for those wanting to purchase their own.
Visitors are very welcome to come and see our classes in action, and discover what our sport is all about.
