OFA offers Introductory/Beginner Classes and "Club" classes throughout the year. 
Introductory and Beginner Classes

 Introductory classes every season (see list below). If you have completed the Introductory/ Beginner class or camp and want to continue fencing, contact the coach from your Intro class or call for recommendation to join the club. "Club Classes are open ONLY to OFA members. To become a member one must complete an Introductory class and receive a coach's recommendation that they are ready to join at the club level. Our club is located at 6699 SW Oleson Rd at the Oregon Episcopal School's Sports and Rec Center. The classes meet once a week and are divided by age groups. All equipment is providedphoto of people learning to fence free of charge. Wear comfortable clothing, capris or pants (no shorts), and athletic type shoes.
