Calendar & Schedule
Beginning fencers: please preregister by phone or e-mail to reserve a place. Beginners should join within the first two weeks of the term.
Our next six-week term of Beginning classes will start the week of October 6th. Our class schedule is below. Classes meet for 55 minutes, except footwork classes, which meet for 30 minutes. Cost for beginners to attend once/week for the 6 week term is $115; cost to attend the same class twice/week for the term is $180. There are no additional fees to participate in your class - no membership fees, no equipment rental fees, nothing extra. You only pay the class fee.
Group classes not fitting your schedule? Individual lessons are available, too!
Open Fencing
Monday - Thursday, 7:00pm - 10:00pm
Friday, 8:00pm - 10pm
Saturday, 2:00pm - 5:00pm
During these times fencers may bout against each other and practice what they learned in class. Open Fencing is free to ICFC members. There is a floor-fee of $5 for non-members. There is an additional equipment fee of $5 for anyone needing to borrow personal electric equipment.
Footwork Sessions
Wednesday - Thursday, 7:00pm - 7:30pm
Because footwork is a very important aspect of fencing, the ICFC holds a 30 minute group footwork session twice a week. During the half-hour fencers will receive individual attention from the instructor, working on form, balance, and speed. The sessions are encouraged for fencers of all levels. The session is free for ICFC members and $5.00 for non-members.
