The Club

brief history of the club

A club born out of a passion for fencing

Founded in 1993 by fencing master Álvaro ZUGASTI, where he and a handful of true fencing enthusiasts wanted to create a place to give free rein to this wonderful passion.

Our club now has more than 30 years of experience and is the place where great champions have been trained. Today, we are the breeding ground for many promising young fencers at the regional, national and international levels.

This is not just a club where you come to train; it is a space where the values of fencing — discipline, passion and respect — are lived and fostered every day. The fun and friendship that is created with every sword thrust on the piste is unlike any other activity.

frequently asked questions

Do I have to buy the equipment or will you lend it to me?

The only equipment you need to purchase is a glove and a cable, which you can buy from us. Everything else, including a mask, jacket, trousers, protective gear and sword, can be rented from our facilities. We have all sizes and equipment for both right-handed and left-handed fencers.

Fencing is a completely safe sport. We are one of the sports with the lowest injury rates, and the equipment we use is top quality, so you can feel completely at ease with us.

Not at all! At our club, you will be competing in bouts from day one. Our instructors will supervise your learning and progressively adapt the sessions so that you can advance at your own individual level. You also have the option of requesting private lessons to further develop your fencing skills.

Of course! We offer classes for children aged 5 and up, where we adapt fencing to include psychomotor games, basic skills, movement coordination and an introduction to technique.

They will learn the rules and fencing techniques appropriate for each age group.

Fencing has no age limit! In fact, we are the club with the highest participation and number of medals in veteran competitions, both in Madrid and Spain.
