"The average sports-loving American does not know that fencing is the fastest of all sports. He may think is consists merely of boring technicalities, while it is, instead, a sparkling exchange of wits, with action and counteraction taking place at an almost unbelievable speed. Nor does he know that more than fun, it is excitement, exhilaration, pure joy of the spirit. And that a fencer in action is a free man." -Aldo Nadi, On Fencing
Welcome to the Fencing Club at NC State
The Fencing Club at NC State is intended to provide instruction and practice in the art of classical fencing to both new and veteran fencers. Our students will have the opportunity to learn a sport that builds reflexes, coordination, flexibility, and overall physical well-being, while at the same time promoting honor, discipline, and good sportsmanship. Our aim is to actively participate and support in the sport of fencing in our community.
Training is available in all three weapons of modern competitive fencing (foil, epee, and saber). No experience is necessary, and equipment will be provided.
Please explore the rest of the site for more information, and if you have any questions, feel free to contact any of the officers.
