In my early adulthood, I competed in both foil and epee fencing competitions on the Divisional (San Diego), Sectional (Pacific Coast), and National (USA) level. I was an individual champion on a division level in both foil and epee, and a team champion in epee in the Pacific Coast Section. I went on to become the Head Coach of UCSD's NCAA varsity men's and women's fencing team, and later opened my own fencing studio in East County San Diego - LionHeart Academy. I have a BS in Kinesiology from San Diego State and am certified as a Fencing Master by both the British Academy of Fencing and the United States Fencing Coaches Association.
LionHeart Academy offers a multi-purpose 6,000 sq. ft. gym facility. Features include a 20 meter archery range and six state-of-the-art overhead scoring machines for fencing. We have a cushioned rubber floor, a full service equipment armory and a pro shop . Our indoor archery range is perfect for tuning your skills for outdoor distances or training for Junior Olympic competitions.
