Hub City Fencing Academy

The staff here is super friendly and flexible. They really try to make sure you have a good experience. I’m currently doing the four week intro course, and I have two sessions left. The instructor is very friendly and will guide you at your own pace. I recommend leaving home a little earlier than you need before your appointment because I had a hard time finding the location. I think I might need to recalibrate my GPS, but it’s worth leaving an extra 10 mins just so you don’t get frustrated with the wonky course you might get sent on. Would recommend!

Came for a tournament recently, so I can’t speak much about the coaching or regular use of the club. But the tournament was well run. Although I was a little surprised by the lack of a cord/​weapon check at the start, but it was a small event.
The club itself is a nice facility. There was plenty of workout equipment. There is a sitting room for parents that is air conditioned and heated (as appropriate). If I ever move back to the area, Hub City would be my first choice. (In fact, I regularly recommend it to friends in the area to try the introductory program.) They have all of their prices listed on their website, which many clubs don’t do.
I follow Hub City on facebook and they regularly have advertised specials for both Adult and Children’s classes. Most recently was a $ 300 10-​week adult class that included mask, glove and jacket — that is a steal!
Hub City is also one of the few clubs I have seen offer a Mommy & Me program for kids under 7. I don’t know too much about it, but it is a great way to introduce your child to a sport they could reasonably do into their 90s.

I took the 10-​week beginner’s course, and it was great.
Laruen — the administrator — is very friendly, and she was really flexible in re-​scheduling lessons when something comes up and you can’t make it.
I like the fact that the 10-​week course includes gear that you custom size and keep for yourself (helmet, jacket & glove).
