What is Indigo Escrime?  Indigo is helpful, inclusive, supportive and here to help fencers, coaches, parents and interested by-standers. 

We run courses for fencers and for fencing supporters, encouraging participation at all levels of the sport.  Whether you’re interested in learning to referee, fix a blade, plan your competition schedule, eat a fencer’s diet (suggestions on a postcard), go to more foreign competitions...we’re here to help.  At the moment, most of our work is in supporting the development of Under 15 fencers who are not yet in the cadet programmes; and other fencers who fall outside the programmes structured for their age and stage (you’re ranked 9th and only the top 8 are on the development programme, as an example).

Over time, this site will develop into a one-stop-shop of fencing advice: ask us questions and we will do our best to answer them.  Soon, you can become a member of Indigo.  We’re not a club and you won’t be coming to us once a week for coaching: membership will give you the tools to improve your performance, augment your training regime, make your relationship with your coach stronger.
