Fencing has existed for thousands of years in many forms and many cultures.
The history of fencing parallels the evolution of civilization, back from the days of ancient Egypt and Rome, to the barbaric Dark Ages, to the fast and elegant Rennaissance, up to the modern, increasingly popular fencing of today.
Fencing has always been regarded as more than a sport – it is an art form, an ancient symbol of power and glory, and a deeply personal, individual form of expression.
Fencing history is still being made today.
