Level 3 Épée

  • Épée

I qualified as a BFA Regional (Level 4) coach in épée and County (Level 3) coach in foil back in 2001, and have been running the popular beginner classes at RFC since 2004. As an ex-international competitor, my style of coaching focuses on getting the basics right, with practical advice and exercises helping students to improve their competitive edge.
