More Flavor: Sports London Fencing Club

  • Fencing_event_full

If you've ever watched the dueling scene in The Mask of Zorro and thought, "Hey, I could do better than that," now you can prove your mettle by taking a stab (ahem) at swordplay at the London Fencing Club. The club provides all the gear, including mask, protective vest and a weapon of choice: sabre (the rigid sword with edges on the blade), foil (the bendy one) or epee (the heavier sword). You can then choose whether to participate in a class or one-on-one coaching, and away you go — just do try to resist the urge to start carving Zs into everything.
