Although the U of M cannot seem to handle having fencing onsite, there IS fencing in the area for ANYONE who would like to either try or practice/train.
Simply contact me - Coach Tom - at 901-258-1075 and I can update you on times/place, etc.
Heck I can even supply you with equipment if that's what you need. Just come out and give it a try?
AND TO ALL MY FORMER STUDENTS: get your butts out and cross some blades at least ONCE in a while??? :)
- That's all for now.

Hello from Coach Tom! If you are interested in learning to fence or already know how and want to spar - contact me at: [email protected]!
