Welcome! Our mission is to provide convenient local venues for recreational fencing and fencing classes, and a great learning experience.
Young and old, experienced and beginner, if you want to fence, let's do it. Our initial instructional program emphasis has been youth fencing, and we especially invite Arlington residents grades 2-12; we are now encouraging adult fencers to join us as well. Open fencing nights are open to anyone (non-member visitors pay a small floor fee).
Fall schedule now: fencing Monday, Wed and
Thurs. New: Saturday classes.
Wannabe fencers: Learn the modern Olympic sport of sword play in a fun friendly environment. Arlington Fencers' Club is dedicated to the study of fencing and expanding the sport’s practice and competition opportunities in Arlington.
