Superbowl

A few people in the Beginners and Intermediate group have let me know that our practice today (Sunday 2/11) coincides with their plans to watch the Superbowl. Accordingly, we’re going to structure practice so that people missing tonight’s practice won’t be behind for next week’s lesson.

Whether you’re at practice or watching TV, have fun and be safe!

Beginner Fencing Classes Fall 2023 – Dates and RSVPs

I am pleased to announce that we have revamped our program for 2023-24 to be more flexible for new members!


Fencing Club of Asheville is going to be starting Fall Beginner Classes starting on the following dates:

  • Wednesday, August 30th (Wednesday evening classes)
  • Sunday October 1st (Sunday evening classes)
  • Sunday November 5th (Sunday evening classes)

Each session will be its own 4 or 5 week class.  You can RSVP by emailing me at this address, fencingclubasheville@gmail.com, with the name of each participant and age of non-adult participants.  Once we hit a certain number of participants, we will close each month’s class. The minimum age for beginners classes is 10 years old.

We will offer Wednesday night classes again in the spring, but we had to move fall and winter classes to Sunday nights.
