Beginners' Night

Give us a couple of hours and we will have you fighting with swords.

We will be holding a Beginner's Introduction to Fencing night on Thursday 10th September starting at 7pm in Cally Uni ARC Building.  The training will run from 7 until 9pm.  There will be someone at reception to direct you to the right hall.  

There is no charge for beginners attending for the first time.  

No training on 20th Aug

Cally Uni need the main hall for an all day event on 20th Aug, so we won't have any training that evening.

Beginners Welcome

Well done to all the people who attended our Beginners Night - hope to see you along on Thursday.

If you missed it, no need to worry, come along any Thursday and we can help you get started.  Even better, bring a friend and you can start together.

Xmas Night Out

Special footwork class on Thursday 18th December, to be held at The Atholl Arms from 7pm.  

In order that this footwork be kept secret, we will have to sit down and practise under tables, with occasional trips to the bar (just to stretch our legs).  Participants are reminded that during such intense training it is important to keep up your fluids.

All past and present members, and occasional visitors welcome.
