Olympia Fencing Center was founded in 2012, and privately owned by Daniel and Iulia Hondor. Our main objective is to promote and grow the sport of fencing, a sport for everyone, across ages and body types. We actively encourage and support all levels of fencing, from beginner/recreational to highly competitive, collegiate, and Olympic fencing. Holder of some of the best results in the country, and prime feeder to the NCAA and Ivy leagues, Olympia is also a proud promoter of gender diversity, inclusion, and equity. We are firmly anchored in the values of equal opportunity in the workplace, and proudly stand against racism and support public solutions that promote racial equity in all aspects of human affairs, as well as other organizations working to eradicate racism from our society. Our company strongly believes that working across multiple cultures translates into better performance. While our main location is in Cambridge, MA, the second location, at 66 Winchester St., in Newton Highlands, MA, is set to open in the summer of 2020. Both Cambridge and Newton locations boast over 6500 SF, equipped with state of the art electrical fencing equipment. Currently, our club offers epee and foil classes for all ages and levels. Olympia’s Director and Founder, Daniel Hondor, has over 25 years of teaching experience. Member of the Romanian National Epee Team 12 years in a row, Daniel won numerous individual and team titles during the early ’80s. He’s proud to belong to one of the most successful fencing generations, who produced numerous well-known coaches worldwide, training and producing numerous world and Olympic champions. Olympia’s foreigner coaches are O1 Visa holders, a special work permit for people proving extraordinary ability in their field, and they all share our company’s philosophy: We Raise Champions!
