Reopening!

We will be re-opening on Wednesday August 4th at 6:30 pm!

The coaches are all fully vaccinated. We strongly encourage all eligible people to get vaccinated.

- Bring water! There is no water fountain available at the gym.
- Masks are required! Please bring extra masks, as you will likely sweat and want to change masks.
- Risk evaluation and sign-in/sign-out protocols must be observed.
- Sanitizing stations will be provided.


For returning fencers:

We are all rusty, and will be easing into it slowly. Due to capacity restrictions and space requirements, we will be limiting our classes in August to a maximum of 14 fencers, and we hope to be able to increase this limit in September.

Walk-in fencers will not be accepted. To keep within the limit of 14 people, please send an email to callum[at]excelsiorfencing.ca to register with your name, weapon, and availability (Mondays/Wednesdays/both), and you will receive further information on attending class. All registrations received on or before August 1st will recieve equal priority in scheduling, and the schedule will be distributed on August 2nd. Registrations received after August 1st will be scheduled if space permits.


For new fencers:

We will not be accepting new members in August.
Our first intro to fencing program will tentatively begin on Monday September 13th. More information will be posted near the end of August.
