Personal/Custom Epee Training Programs

This is a customized competitive training program. Students who want to enhance their competitive skills (setup, delivery, tactics, reading opponents’ intent, goal setting, etc.) will be evaluated, and a custom training program will be tailored to the student’s needs. The focus of this program is on accelerated, incremental improvement of competitive performance and results. This is a month-to-month program that provides students with a higher level of personalized training and services and is customized to the specific athlete’s needs. This program requires a higher level of commitment from the athlete which includes a minimum of two private lessons per week(included), and participation in competition as identified in the plan. To ensure that the members of this program get the attention that they deserve, no more than 2 athletes will be trained in this program each month. Students must have 3 or more years of competitive experience and be at least 13 years of age to participate. This program is an independent “concierge” program. $300/month (includes 2 private lessons/week, up to 8 lessons/month).

Strip coaching at competitions is a one-off contracted service. The cost is $150 per athlete, per event, plus travel and expenses.
