All fencers remember the first time they picked a sword up and the rush of actually hitting their mate with it the first time they fenced!! Its brilliant and we love to share our sport with all newcomers over the age of 14.
We are so excited to announce we are hosting 4 beginners courses over 2025. The dates are as follows
Winter Course : 27th January – 03rd March
Spring Course: 02nd June – 07th July
Summer Course: 01st September – 06th October
Autumn Course: 03rd November – 08th December
Liverpool Fencing Club only take beginners during our beginners courses. This is so that we can offer you the best fencing experience and teach you all the basics alongside other newbies. The course is a non refundable £50 and covers 12 hours of fencing over 6 weeks which is to be paid on the first session of the course. For beginners there is also the option to get your first years membership with Liverpool Fencing Club at a discounted rate at £10 (normally £15) if you pay it alongside your beginners course.
We understand that you may need to miss a session during the 6 weeks. Whilst we do not refund these weeks we roll over your missing weeks to the next session. This can be used up to the start of the next beginners course to pick up on what you have missed. After that date any missing weeks will be lost.
We will provide all of the fencing kit you need to use during the sessions and all we ask you to bring;
T-shirt suitable to exercise in
Long tracksuit bottoms (NOT shorts or Jeans. Health and safety)
Exercise suitable trainers
Bottle of water
