TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR 2024 SPECIAL DEAL FOR EPEE STARTERS - UNHEARD OF VALUE!
Sign Up for Epee Starters and you will be provided with a mask, jacket and glove to take home and bring back for each session - we're keeping things CovidSafe! At the end of your 5 sessions, if you do not want to continue, just bring the gear back and we will refund your $85 deposit.
Sign up at the end of your 5 week course for a term membership ($250) and your equipment deposit will 'roll over' and you will get to keep your jacket, glove and mask. That's $250 worth of equipment, yours to keep! You will need your own épée and bodywire for regular training. This can be purchased from us for $95 (usual price over $150) or you are welcome to purchase from other local or international equipment providers. You won't need anything else in your kit for social fencing. With your term membership, you can train up to 3 classes a week, whatever suits your schedule!
