Fenced Before? Train With Us in Singapore
If you stopped fencing for school, university, National Service, work, family or a move abroad, you are welcome back. If you already fence, you are welcome too. Enquire for an assessment, and a coach will watch you fence and suggest a group class or private coaching plan that fits.
Who This Is For
Returning fencers come first. You might be a school or university fencer who stopped, or someone who put the blade down for National Service, work, family or a move abroad. This page is for you if you are:
- coming back to fencing after time away
- a school or university fencer who wants to carry on after you graduate
- new to Singapore and looking for somewhere to train
- a veteran or masters fencer
- training at another club and looking to add sessions or individual coaching with us
If you have never fenced, the fencing trial class is the place to start instead.
Coming Back to Fencing
Taking time away is normal, and you do not need to apologise for it. Footwork and timing come back with practice.
The first sessions back may feel rusty, and that is normal. Tell us roughly when you last fenced and in which weapon, and the coach plans around it.
Our guide to coming back to fencing, or adding a second club covers what to expect and how to ease back in.
What the Assessment Involves
The assessment is a session with a coach. It is separate from the beginner Trial & Assessment, and it is not a grading.
The coach watches your footwork, your blade work and your bouts. Afterwards they recommend a group class or a private coaching plan that fits you. Our coaches are all NROC-registered.
We do not publish the price, length or timing of the assessment. The coach confirms the details when replying to your enquiry.
What to Tell Us in Your Enquiry
The enquiry form asks for a few things, so the coach can prepare:
- the weapon or weapons you fence: foil, sabre or epee (see the three weapons)
- your current or most recent club
- your level and any results
- whether you have your own kit
After the Assessment
The coach recommends a group class or a private coaching plan. Some fencers take a place in an adult class if they are 16 or older. Others prefer private lessons for individual work. The coach confirms the arrangements with you.
