Fireplace Evening with Oleg

There are experiences you do not simply book. You gain access to them. The Fireplace Evening with Oleg is exactly that kind of experience: rare, personal, and intentionally limited to a very small circle. This evening is for people who do not just want to become better fencers, but who want to experience one of the most influential foil coaches in the world in an atmosphere that feels familiar, warm, and genuinely friendly.

​

Oleg is the coach who helped build Japanese fencing, developed world champions, guided Olympic medalists, and was part of six Olympic Games as a coach. To experience someone like him not from a distance, not on a stage, and not in front of a large crowd, but in a small and open group, is something truly special.

​

That is exactly why this evening is not meant to feel like a lecture or a formal seminar. It is not about distance. It is about closeness. Not about a stiff setting, but about an evening that feels almost like a very special gathering among friends. Personal, relaxed, open, and honest. Almost as if, for one evening, you become part of a small inner circle — like joining Oleg for a relaxed team dinner with his Japanese national team.

​

That is what makes this evening so valuable. You are not only there to listen. You are invited to speak openly. About your questions. About your doubts. About your struggles in sport. About mental pressure, development, setbacks, uncertainty, or the next step on your journey. You can ask Oleg directly how athletes like Yuki Ota or Matsuyama dealt with difficult moments, how they solved challenges, and what truly makes the difference at world-class level.

The real value of this evening is not only in the information, but in the feeling. In the closeness. In the openness. In the opportunity to receive honest answers and real insight in a setting that feels human, warm, and personal. It may be exactly that one sentence, that one piece of advice, or that one story that stays with you and helps you move forward — in sport and beyond.

To create exactly this kind of atmosphere, the evening is intentionally kept extremely exclusive. There are only 6 places per evening, across just 2 evenings. Only in a group this small can it truly remain personal, familiar, and friendship-like.

​

Food and drinks are included, so you can simply enjoy the evening and feel less like you are attending a program point and more like you are part of a very special shared evening.

​

A maximum of 6 guests per evening. Two exclusive evenings. Familiar, friendly, and exceptionally personal.
