Group Classes
How Classes Work:
- Parents and family members are allowed in the club during classes, but please minimize distractions to fencers.
- If you are borrowing club gear, please leave it in the designated areas for used gear after each class. Anything that came off of a hanger should be hung back up on the used gear rack.
- Bring your own water bottle and take it with you when you leave.
- Each group session is one credit in ScheduleFencing (our booking software). Pricing is the same for structured classes and open fencing.
Cancellations
- If you are late to your group class time, you may still come into the session and participate until the designated end time. The lost time will not be made up.
- If you miss the class completely, we will consider you a no show.
- In the event of severe weather and other disruptions, we will post closure notices on Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky and Discord (link is at the club). Monitor at least one of those when the weather is acting up.
