The Rochester Fencing Club at 777 Culver Road, Upper Level, Rochester, NY 14609. To map out your directions please click here.

We are located one block down from Sticky Lips BBQ heading North on Culver Road. Our parking lot is actually Merton Street (it is a road between two buildings) and our entrance is on the second floor. There are a white set of steps on the outside of the building and those lead to the fencing club. The left turn for Merton is across the street from East High School as you reach the tennis courts. Many people drive by the entrance and if you get lost you can also always call us at 654-6047.

What will you need?

Just wear comfortable clothing, preferably not jeans, and wear enclosed shoes, not clogs, Crocs, or sandals. Wear pants or on hot days please wear shorts that come to the knee with compression shorts underneath. Women may wear capri pants. Bring a water bottle, a towel, and perhaps an extra shirt for after class. Please bring a separate pair of shoes to wear onto the fencing floor so we can keep the surface free of mud. Thank you!
