What is, OLYMPIC Sport Fencing? OLYMPIC Sport Fencing is a modern sport derived from the ancient art of combat by the sword. Modern OLYMPIC fencing combines physical and mental abilities to produce a highly complex motor skill. In fencing, no two bouting situations are ever the same; in fact, no point nor any action is ever replicated in exactly the same way. The Practice of Olympic Sport Fencing is a unique recreational activity that can provide great enjoyment for athletes of all ages.
The sport of fencing is fast and athletic, a far cry from the choreographed bouts you see on film or on the stage. Instead of swinging from a chandelier or leaping from balconies, you will see two fencers performing an intense dance on a 6-feet by 44-feet strip. The movement is so fast the touches are scored electrically - a lot more like Star Wars than The Three Musketeers.
