Welcome
The Tulsa Fencing Club has been the leading fencing club in Northeastern Oklahoma for over fifty years. The club, which was first formed by Art Wade, c. 1960, at the downtown YMCA, is open to both recreational and competitive fencers. In addition to our weekly practice sessions, we also maintain an active competitive schedule.
Beginning fencers should START HERE.
We offer fencing classes, open bouting and the occasional USFA-sanctioned tournament. If you are visiting from out-of-town and are a current USFA member, then please stop by. Given enough advance notice, we can even provide you with some fencing equipment.
We are truly sorry if you are looking for “fencing” of the chain-link or barbed-wire variety – you won’t find any here. Google, Bing, Yahoo! and the other search engines are still pretty stupid. But while you are here, you might as well look around. We frequently enjoy visits from web surfers and Internet citizens that find us by accident.

Fox 23 Sports Goes Fencing!
Fox 23 Sports asked the Tulsa Fencing Club to perform a fencing demonstration on March 23, 2012 from 12 noon to 2:00 pm. The story was broadcast later that night. What a blast! We gave James and Nathan a quick fencing lesson and then turned them loose! In case you missed it, you can CLICK HERE to view the video on their website. They had so much fun, they doubled the length of the feature to over 3 minutes! A BIG THANK-YOU to Reverend Bill Web and the Southminster Presbyterian Church for letting us schedule the event on such short notice!
