Épée differs fundamentally from the other two fencing disciplines in its rules and target area. Fencers can strike their opponent anywhere on the entire body from head to toe
Foil fencing is highly defined by its technical precision and specific rules. Fencers can strike their opponent within the valid target zone which includes the torso, front and back, from the shoulders to the groin.
“Raul Gutierrez is an amazing coach. He is not only great at developing the technique of the athletes, but also strives to give each and every athlete the support necessary for them to grow as human beings so that they can not only be better at fencing, but also at life. With him I won several international titles such as the U13 Pan American Championship, as well as several South American U13 and U15 titles, multiple Peruvian National championships spanning the U11 to U20 categories and my first qualification for the Senior Peruvian National team.”.
