The Camp will be run by Olympians and former British and Commonwealth Champions, Pierre Harper and Linda Strachan, who, between them, have taken a total of 30 Newham Swords fencers from grass roots to GB standard, and produced National Champions at U17, U20, U23 and Senior level (including the reigning National Senior Women’s Foil Champion, Teagan Williams-Stewart), as well as developed fencers who have won gold at Cadet, Junior and Senior Commonwealth Games and medalled at Cadet and Junior European and World Championships.
Why not come along and experience Pierre’s “killer” footwork sessions, spar with our top GB Internationals and experience some of the training methods used by Newham Swords to bring about all their success.

Fencers Club London now runs various training camps during both half term and school holidays. These will range from a couple of days to week-long sessions.
Most of these camps are open to non-members as well as members and run by our amazing team of coaches who some how seem to make hard work fun and enjoyable.
Activities include footwork, drills, strength and conditioning, one to one lessons, talks and free fencing. Our coaches arrange for high-calibre, competitive guest fencers and sparring partners to add depth and diversity to the training.
