From the early days to modern times, this captivating sport has enthralled both men and women alike. In 1907, "The Fencing Female" emerged as a symbol of empowerment, breaking stereotypes with her graceful movements and fierce determination. Meanwhile, gentlemen fencers in the 18th century showcased their lunging and parrying techniques with finesse reminiscent of a bygone era. Captain Richard Francis Burton left his mark on history as an accomplished fencer. His expertise exemplified the artistry behind every thrust and parry. Even in France during 1825, a master fencer's diploma from the Compagnons du Tour de France was highly esteemed. Fencing target practice became essential for honing one's skills. The concentration required to hit those precise marks demanded unwavering focus and discipline. It was through such rigorous training that champions were forged. A glimpse into a fencing school in 1890 reveals an atmosphere brimming with passion for this noble art form. Engraved illustrations captured the essence of camaraderie among students striving for excellence under expert guidance.

S national champion in women's foil in 1913 – proving that gender knows no boundaries when it comes to mastering this timeless sport.
