Fencing Lessons in Monrovia, Near Pasadena
We're a fencing club on Maple Ave in Monrovia, just off the 210 between Pasadena and Arcadia. We teach epee to complete beginners and coach fencers all the way to national competition.Fencing is faster and less choreographed than the movies suggest. It's a full-speed exchange of distance, timing and decisions, and most people are surprised how tiring their first bout is.You don't need experience or equipment to start..
Your first class
You'll warm up, learn footwork, put on a mask and jacket, hold a blade and fence a short bout. Same day.
Wear a long-sleeve shirt, long pants and lace-up athletic shoes. Bring water. We provide the mask, jacket, glove and blade. You need nothing else to try it.
Fencing has one of the lowest injury rates in youth sport. Everyone is fully masked and jacketed, and the blades are blunt and flexible.
The coaches here are very professional and work closely with the fencer in the areas need to be improved on. My kid got great improvement just couple weeks training here.
這裡的教練非常專業且及時對擊劍者的問題加以糾正。我的小孩才上幾堂課後就有很明顯的進步。
I heard about Fortune Fencing from the radio and wondering if it’s too late for my 13 years old son to start learning fencing. I took my son to try the class anyway . Coach Z is very nice and professional, he told me it was fun and he liked it. Now he moved to the competitive class. I’m glad to see all his efforts and improvements. It has boosted his confidence a lot too. Both Coach Emara and Coach Z are very attentive and professional, they will make sure everyone gets their skills improved based on their level. I’m glad that my son liked this new sport and made big progress. I’m live in city of walnut, but I’m willing to travel a little far to this place as long as my son enjoys it.
The best fencing club in the San Gabriel Valley! The instruction is world class and the students are exceptional. My boys both started with no experience five years ago and are now competing on a national level. The club has multiple national champions and at least one member on the US team. As an adult beginner, the coaches have been patient and helpful. If you have ever wanted to try fencing for yourself or your kids, give fortune a try!
Fortunately, we found fortune fencing. The two coaches are very professional and patient with students. My son has made progress in every class. Than you! Coaches!
If you’re looking for an amazing, professional, and fun fencing academy, then Fortune Fencing is definitely for you! I’m currently a student at Fortune Fencing, and it’s been about three years of being a student there. I definitely recommend Fortune Fencing if you need to improve your skills or want to get into the wonderful sport of fencing! They have private and group lessons, and the instructors are very qualified and superb.
Could not be anymore happy with our experience at fortune fencing. The coaching staff knows what they are doing and does their best keeping the students motivated and engaged in the sport of fencing. We’ve been coming for about a year now and will continue to come for many many more years. The coaching staff and the other families who attend are the best. Thank you fortune fencing.

Mission statement
We coach beginners and national competitors in the same room. A kid who walks in having never held a blade trains in a club where fencers qualify for national events, and that changes what they think is possible.We've been in Monrovia since 2009. Most of our families stay for years.
