My daughter has been fencing with Olympia Fencing Center for almost 8 years. Their group classes and private lessons have always been intense. When the club was forced to close as a result of COVID-19 I worried that Ava would lose training time and this would impact her when the club was able to re-open. Olympia did not just jump into running online classes. The coaches met and collaborated to figure out the best way to offer online classes for all of their students. They did the same for private lessons which started about two weeks after online group classes started. I'm impressed with the intensity of both the classes and private lessons. Both the classes and private lessons have been comprehensive and intense. Ava has received a great deal of attention in the class and I'm impressed with Coach Daniel's and Coach Julian's attention to detail in her lessons. While this isn't an ideal situation I'm happy she is able to continue her training.

Amazing coaches and facilities! Olympia is like family to my son and helped him turn a hobby into a passion. Highly recommend to anybody wanting to try a new sport for themselves or their children. Olympia is also keeping up classes during the Covid 19 quarantine offering group and private lessons virtually. They are going above and beyond to keep their members active and engaged during difficult times.

Olympia Fencing Center is a great club to fence, learn, and grow in, no matter your level of experience! The friendly coaches and staff treat every fencer with warmth and consideration and are always happy to help. There is always a diverse variety of fencers of differing levels of experience and skills that gather to fence, whether it be in classes or during open bouting. A great place!

A great club with a very open, supportive family atmosphere...but don’t let that fool you...some of the best fencers in the world come from/fence here. Ten minutes conversation with Coach Daniel will make clear just how dedicated he and the other coaches are to their students’ success and well-being...in their fencing, in their studies at school, and in their lives off the strip.

Olympia has an outstanding coaching staff and classes for every level - beginners to advanced and youth to veteran fencers. I have fenced for most of my life, and genuinely feel privileged to know Danial and Iulia Hondor. They have created a friendly, welcoming, yet highly competitive club. When I wanted to introduce my then 10 year old daughter to fencing, i knew that Daniel would be a great coach. Seven years later and now in college, she has both excelled at fencing and grown through her friendships with club mates. I credit Olympia and fencing for a tremendous experience for her - and for her proud dad!
