ABOUT OUR FENCING SCHOOL

"Once upon a time, just before the New Year of 2002, several of El Paso's fencing parents went searching for a special kind of Fencing Master. Whether the planets were perfectly aligned, the Great Fencing Gods were smiling on El Paso, or it was just pure luck, Margaret De Long agreed to come out of a fencing break" Susan Enger.

The school is dedicated to the preparation of youth, cadet, junior and adult recreational and competitive fencers. Fencers participated in local, regional and national competitions.
