Period style fencing taught by Douglas Rusinko who was taught by the former club instructor, Ron McAfee, who was killed in a car accident (Jan 2005) We study the style of rapier fighting that was prominent of the Renaissance era with shlager blades rather than the foils and epee of today's standard. We emphasize chivalry, honor, and camaraderie. No prior experience is required, basic leasons are given to those that seek them. The club is open to all students, faculty, and staff.
