New Jersey Fencing Alliance (NJFA)

New Jersey Fencing Alliance (NJFA) New Jersey Fencing Alliance is a premier fencing club located in Maplewood, NJ. Classes progress from a basic introduction course through advanced competition.

New Jersey Fencing Alliance is a non-profit fencing club which offers a broad range of classes which teach the fundamentals of fencing including footwork, blade work and strategy. We welcome anyone who wants to come down and watch this fascinating sport! Anyone, of any age and at any level of fitness can explore one of the worlds oldest sports. Physical conditioning, mental discipline, self respect and respect for others are the primary goals in developing the wonderful skills of fencing. By starting at a young age, youngsters are encouraged to do their best, not only to learn a lifetime sport, but to set the patterns for success that will be with them throughout their formative years and into adulthood. Their passion for the sport and their discipline to push themselves will determine what they gain. Fencing by definition is : "The art of skillfully using a sword or foil in attack or defense." Webster's definition, at best, is a sententious one for such an exhilarating game. Fencing is still referred to as an "Art". Yes, it is an art, but the sport of fencing is a martial art, not an art form. Although one may say that "there is an art to fencing well," the sport of fencing is a demanding personal combat sport. Not a game of jab and stab. Good fencing is an exciting science. It is an excellent physical exercise that accommodates boys and girls and adults of all ages.
