There are two ways you can give fencing a go at the Fencing Institute. Join one of the group classes listed below or become a Full Club Member.
If you wish to fence in Nelson please view our Nelson page here.
We are starting classes for beginner fencers of all ages in Rangiora.
Our classes are designed for both new and advanced fencers to learn the basics, get a good workout, extend skills or just have a fun time. We offer beginner classes and advanced classes for both young fencers and adults. All protective clothing and fencing equipment is provided initially except for a fencing glove. You will need sports shoes, trousers, a light long-sleeved top and a named water bottle. You will be expected to have your own gear after you have been fencing a year, or sooner if preferred. Before buying, please talk to your coach about what equipment would be best for you.
If you would like to join one of the classes listed below first join as a Starter Member through this website. Then contact Lucian Nightingale 022 047 2428 or email hello@fencinginstitute.co.nz to be placed into a class. When you join a group class your fee will include your membership to the Fencing Institute . You will be able to participate in our social activities, purchase club clothing and receive the club’s newsletters.
"Beginner" classes are suitable for primary school aged students while "Intermediate" classes are suitable for advanced primary school aged students and intermediate / high school aged students.
Additional classes may be added on Wednesday at 5pm and Saturday 10am depending on demand. If these times would suit you better, please reach out.
