VRI has produced an impressive 26 Olympians since it was established in 1949. Open six days a week, VRI is an epée club offering a range of structured group classes for children and adults, from beginners through to elite athletes. But while VRI trains competitive Olympic fencers and pentathletes, many of our members fence simply to keep fit, have fun, and be social! 

VRI’s Swordplay class helps children aged 7-11 to learn new skills, improve their fitness and develop self-confidence through fencing. After Swordplay, children will join our Junior Epée Squad, 12-20yrs, Coached by Olympian Gerry Adams  

We also run Come & Try and Adult Beginner classes throughout the year for those who want to try the sport.

Our Adult Epée Squad builds core strength and fitness for fencing, develops technical skills, and applies tactics and strategy through a range of structured exercises and drills. Our highly trained and experienced coaches are also available for private lessons.

Western Swords’ aim is to give immigrant kids and their families the chance to fence at no cost. Through donations and sponsorships we provide certified coaches and all necessary equipment to give everyone the chance to have fun with swords! Fencing is ideal for anyone aged 9 and up, including mums and dads! Any fitness level is fine – you can learn at your own pace.

Training is Thursday evenings during school terms
