We’re ON!
But the jury is still out on our evening fencing program.
Please refer to their website for updates regarding afternoon/evening activities.
We will not be able to update Baltimore MidAtlantic’s website until after 5PM. If you have questions, call or text Coach Chris at 410-790-8033.
Off again, on again:
Looks like the Loyola’s Dons will not be dancing on Friday, 2/8/2019. So we got Wheeler Hall back for all scheduled lessons and classes.
And of course, OPEN BOUTING, starting at 8:00PM!
(Bring a friend!)
Shouldn’t be a problem in foil and saber. But it seems contrary to the epee game. (At least that’s why Coach Chris dislikes it!)
In addition to this site, we’ll be posting club news—such as weather-related closings—on our Facebook Group. Sign up for timely updates to club news right here.
Time to pay the piper register for the February/March 2019 Classes!
Could it be simpler? Yes, it could!

As of 5:00PM on Friday, February 1, 2019, there has been no news regarding potential closings of our venue.
Call Coach Chris at 410-790-8033 after 6PM if there are any questions. He’ll be at the location by then!
P.S.: Despite Capitol Clash, despite snow… fencing went on until 9:30PM at Baltimore MidAtantic!
Our gracious host, Loyola Blakefield, is following the hallowed Baltimore tradition of battening down the hatches in anticipation of snow flurries. They issued this alert for Tuesday, January 29, 2019:
WINTER WEATHER UPDATE: Due to inclement weather, Loyola Blakefield will close at noon today (Tuesday, January 29th).
No after care service is available and all afternoon/evening activities are canceled.
That, unfortunately, means that there will be no fencing tonight, either!
—From a 1905 account of an epee duel.
At Baltimore MidAtlantic Fencing Academy, we are rarely rude — but since the actual meaning is “hard-fought”, yes, we have that, too!
Epee class at 7:30 on Tuesday, open bouting starts around 8:15!
With Coach Larby holding hands and wiping noses strip-coaching Baltimore MidAtlantic fencers at this year’s Capitol Clash on Friday and Saturday, Coach Chris will be filling in for him at this Friday’s 6:30PM foil class!
All his “favorite students” from his former Saturday morning conditioning class at BFC are surely excited to hear that—and are getting ready for Grandmaster Lee’s “Twenty-Five Knuckle Poosh-up”!
