Our Mission

Our goal is to create an inclusive fencing environment, a united community fit for the Olympic hopeful through the recreational fencer. Unlike the more classical American program which focuses often exclusively on individual coach-student relationships, our new model provides a community of coaches who have a vested interest in each and every student. Empire United emphasizes an integrative, group approach to its training system. Students in all of the offered programs benefit from the insight and attention of our entire coaching staff. Empire United’s cohesive approach translates into an enriched, structured training environment conducive to the growth of both our fencer’s skill and overall enjoyment of the sport.
