All weapons, all ages, all levels

We offer camps for all three weapons, for children and adults with one year’s experience up to invitation-only camps for high-level international athletes. Whether you’re an under-9 who started at the beginning of the year or a seasoned World Cup competitor, there’s a camp designed for you.

Challenging, Physical & Fun

The camps range from a few days during UK half-term holidays to full weeks during the summer. Our coaches tailor the training programme of each camp depending on the weapon, age & level of the fencers attending to deliver the right mix of hard work and fun.

World class coaching from all over the world

Salle Paul seeks out the best quality of coaching for its camps. In addition to our club coaches, we bring in international guest coaches from around the world. In the past, coaches from Italy, the United States, France, Romania, Hungary, Poland, Japan, Turkey and the Netherlands have shared their expertise and exposed the fencers to many different styles and techniques. The coaches we invite over all have a proven record of producing international fencers.

An international experience

Salle Paul’s camps see fencers attending from all over the world. We have welcomed fencers from every corner of Europe, North & South America, China, Hong Kong, Australia, and New Zealand. Arriving as strangers, fencers on the camp foster new friendships which go on to last a lifetime. The camps often finish with an age group relevant competition, so the attendees get to test their new found skills in a competitive scenario.
