British fencer moving to New York

fa266 · 10-29-2005, 03:26 AM

I'm a British fencer and there is the opportunity for me to move to New York for 6 months through my work. I've fenced sabre for 1-2 years, I train at a good club in London and am mid-ranking in national competitions. I was just wondering if there were any clubs in New York that would be suitable for me to train at and what times they fence?

why oh why is this part of the site BLUE???????

Anyhow, if you go to the homepage of f.net, you'll find a link leading you to all the fencing clubs in the US. Surely the ones from NYC are listed as well....

Because it's entitled NYC Fencing / Training and it would therefore seem the obvious (not to mention logical) place to post such a thread.

Did that, but I was hoping some NYC fencers might be able to add their input.

Thank you for your helpful attitude Pauli.

look here for a club listing and info for NYC;

http://www.metrodivision.com/

also post this in the introductions or general fencing section you will get more notice there are more than a couple of fencers here from NYC. My understanding that only blood, high international ranking or a substantial wad of cash (

) will get you into fencers club - but there are plenty of others.
