On 12 March 2020, we organised for Danone<\/strong> a fencing workshop<\/a>. They met as part of team building. The employees were fully catered for by bus to a beautiful location in Haspengouw. Read a report on Danone's active company outing below.<\/p>

A warm welcome<\/h2>

Upon arrival, the men and women of Danone were welcomed by us with some regional drinks and snacks<\/strong>. Then the head of the department made an introductory presentation. After this, it was time for some action and the fencing workshop could begin!<\/p>

En garde! - the workshop<\/h2>

Led by ex-pro fencer Frederick Vandormael<\/em> <\/strong>Danone employees learned the tricks of this graceful sport in 2.5 hours. In fencing, concentration, vision and responsiveness play an important role. The men and women of Danone had the chance to learn some important basic techniques of fencing. These included footwork, attack and defence techniques. This way, the employees could confidently participate in the subsequent tournament.<\/p>

But before it came to that, learned Frederick Vandormael<\/em> they all about the materials used in fencing. The men and women of Danone were introduced to the 3 weapons that can be wielded during fencing: the epee, foil and sabre<\/strong>. In the end, the sabre was used to practice with, as it is the most accessible. Explanations of how to use the mask, fencing vest and glove were also covered. This allowed everyone to start the tournament with confidence!<\/p>

A fanatical competition<\/h2>

Besides testing the skills acquired, the game is of course the ultimate way to get closer to your colleagues! The tournament consisted of a fanatical competition with a final between the two best fencers. During the tournament, the matches alternated at a fast pace and the fanatics quickly jumped out. For the winner, we provided a nice souvenir.<\/strong><\/p>

An aperitif and dinner to finish<\/h2>

After such an instructive and active day, it is nice to have a chat with each other. Danone concluded this successful team-building outing with an aperitif provided by us and a delicious regional 3-course dinner<\/strong>.<\/p>
