Closed for classes for the holidays

A reminder that the club will be closed Monday, December 23–Friday, January 3 for evening classes.

You can still arrange for private lessons with Coach Jorge and set up open bouting if there’s interest.

NMFF welcomes your support

As the year ends, and you may be thinking about year-end giving, please consider donating to New Mexico Fencing Foundation.

Dedicated volunteers keep the facilities, classes, equipment, and tournaments running. Your monthly fees go to housing and utilities for the club and Coach Jorge, so we welcome any additional support to expand our activities and address ongoing maintenance.

New Mexico Fencing Foundation is a 501(c)3 nonprofit, donations to the club are tax-deductible. You can leave a check in the payment box or give to any of the coaches, and we will provide you with a confirmation and tax receipt. Please send an email with any questions.

Equipment recommendations from German Fencing Gear

Jens and Leticia of German Fencing Gear put together a guide with some recommendations for fencing gear — shown in that graphic above, download a PDF here.

You can also browse their site and choose your gear there. If you have any questions about sizing or anything else, or want other recommendations, send Jens an email.
