DC Fencers is definitely a nice, normal club with little to no drama. And strong coaches and fencers.

We love DC Fencers. Really great coaches!

Elite is where you want to go if your child hopes to do well competitively. Fencing Sports Academy is definitely not. The crazy stuff carried out by the owner and mentioned above by a previous poster is absolutely true. She outright lies about who is fencing at her club and has many strange rules. It is the only club where parents are barred from watching their students practice, even very young children. It is a bad environment, although it definitely is in a good location. Penta in Merrifield is another option for epee.
