Event Expectations:
UVFC invites you to an evening of fencing action. Participate in the excitement, fun and comradery of this classic and Olympic sport. We will provide all instruction and equipment necessary for you to experience the thrill of fencing for yourself. After a brief overview of the sport and its history, we will guide you through practical fencing basics over the course of this two-hour session and see you convert that into immediate action.

Background:
The Upper Valley Fencing Club (UVFC) focuses on modern sport fencing in all three weapons — foil, épée and saber — and our practice is rooted in respect for sportsmanship, classical form, contemporary technique and competitive play.

We encourage family participation and routinely have a parent and one or two offspring participating together. Through this pairing, parents and kids can share in a physical activity. While our activities do not require a high base level of fitness, they usually result in better overall fitness and stress reduction, improve mindful practice and increase physical as well as mental agility.

UVFC comprises a wide range of instructor experience and interests, enabling teenage students to prepare for collegiate fencing, and fencers of any age for competitive fencing, if they so desire.
Whether you are an active fencer, a rusty blade, or interested in learning about the fencing, please join us!

Did you watch the American men’s curling team win gold at the last Winter Olympics? Did you think that it looked like a fun game? Here is your chance to learn all about curling and to try your hand at the game. Curling is an ancient game that began in Scotland several hundred years ago, and is now played in many countries, most notably Canada and the U.S. It is a game of skill that most people can pick up quickly, but it takes years to master. Curlers often play into their 80’s using adaptive equipment and techniques, and many players pick up the game while they are in their 60’s. The great part is that you can have fun and enjoy playing at any skill level.

 

Coached by experienced members of the Upper Valley Curling Club, you will learn the basics of delivery, sweeping, and strategy. You must have good balance and some flexibility and strength, but do not think that Olympic players represent the average curler! Your lead instructor will be an OSHER@Dartmouth member and student, and a dedicated curler. The club supplies all equipment; you need to have warm clothing and shoes with non-skid soles. In a two-hour session there will be one break to warm up. The class will be held mostly on the ice in the Wendell A. Barwood ice arena in White River Junction.
