Beginning on Wednesday, January 23, Margo Szabunia will teach epee classes and be available for private lessons at Liberty Fencing Club!
Margo is one of the pioneers of women's epee with very impressive results and a consistent USFA "A" rating in both foil and epee over a span of several decades. She fenced under 3-time Olympian & Hall of Fame coach Dave Micahnik and Olympic Team coach and Hall of Famer Lajos Csiszar at the University of Pennsylvania. After Penn, she continued to train with legendary epeeist and coach Iosif Vitebskiy. She was an assistant coach at Temple University in the 1980s and attended Coaches College in Colorado Springs. Margo also began coaching epee at Swarthmore College in 2012. As a junior fencer, she trained at the New York Fencers Club and at a club in Poland ("Piast"). Margo has represented the United States in competing abroad (Mexico, Canada, England, France) --- most recently in 2008 as a member of the U.S. Veterans World Team in Limoges, France.
She is very personable and a lot of fun. Margo is extremely excited to begin coaching at Liberty FC and work with fencers at a variety of experience levels.
