VTMFC is one of the oldest fencing clubs in British Columbia, operating for over 30 years. Our Fencing Master is the distinguished Maître Bac Tau. We are located in West Point Grey, Vancouver.


We are dedicated to the practice and development of fencing, based on the instruction of Maître Bac. We encourage each member to think about what they want to achieve with fencing before they start, wether it is for fun, for personal growth, or local, National, or International competition.


Fencing is a terrific sport for all ages. It will challenge you mentally and physically, burn calories and develop flexibility, coordination, and cardiovascular endurance. To learn to fence all you need is a t-shirt, sweatpants, and a pair of running shoes. We will supply the initial equipment to get started.
