Competitive Class Time is Moved to 7:00pm Thursday from 6:30pm to avoid conflicting with Basketball Games and practices.

Beginner and Intermediate Classes will remain at 6:30pm on Tuesday. If basketball runs long we will just wait a few minutes and start when they end, and extend class a bit later.

Tonight at 630 will be the first Beginner class and Intermediate class of the new year! Open Fencing will happen at 730pm right after. Please drive carefully since roads may be icy. Gym is heated but bring a sweatshirt just in case it’s not keeping up with the cold.

The next start dates for beginners are Tuesday, November 5th OR Thursday, November 7th. The next chance for beginners after that will be in January.

In order to provide more flexibility, for November and December of this year we are going to run Beginner classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The Tuesday and Thursday classes will cover the same material, and Beginners can attend either session, but not both.

Helene Relief: Please be aware that Fencing Club Asheville offers scholarship and sliding scale programs for beginners and other classes. If the cost of classes is an issue for you in participating in our sport, please talk to one of the coaches about our scholarship program. We want everyone to be able to fence!
