FENCING TRAINING CAMPS

Half term camps

Luso International Fencing and Future Champions Academy have teamed up to deliver an exhilarating half-term fencing camp. Each camp is led by an international champion who dives deep into a specific skill set—whether it’s precise bladework, dynamic footwork, tactical insight or advanced mobility. All Luso club fencers are warmly invited to join, and the camps remain open to external fencers eager to sharpen their technique and train alongside elite athletes. With expert coaching, targeted drills and a supportive community atmosphere, every participant will finish the break with enhanced confidence and refined fencing skills.

​

During February 2025 half term, Luso hosted a workshop together with Tokyo Gold medallist Erika Kirpu, U20 world medallist Vittoria Siletti and famous Greek coach Kosmas Karakolis. 3 days of intensive training focusing on mental preparation, strategies and high level fencing.

International summer camp

At Luso we fear no opponents. Every summer we partner with our European friends and we run a weeklong residential camp together.
Summer camps are the best chance for our fencers to get together and make new friends from all over Europe while moving their skills to the next level.

The 2022 camp has been hosted by Circolo della Spada Mangiarotti (Milan). In the beautiful location of Predazzo (Italy), our fencers joined two Italian clubs, Mangiarotti and Desio, for a week packed with training, fencing and fun.

In 2023 we went back to Italy, in Predazzo. In 2024 we moved to South Italy and together with Club Scherma Cosenza we spent a wonderful week in Pizzo Calabro at the TUI Magic Life village.

In 2025, for the first time ever, Luso will host its own residential camp in Somerset. 6 days of fun, fencing and a variety of sports to keep athletes active and to get them ready for the start of the new season. Main guest and head coach will be Paolo Pizzo, silver medallist in Rio 2016 for Italy.
