Victorian Fencing Society

The Victorian Fencing Society, established in 2011, is a Dallas-based organization dedicated to researching, training, and demonstrating the art of fencing in the fashion of the nineteenth century. Led by President and Instructor Jonathan Carr, who has been involved in fencing since 1984, the society welcomes individuals of all levels of experience who are interested in studying the history of fencing during this era.

With monthly practice sessions held at the Fencing Institute of Texas, the society focuses on nineteenth-century fencing techniques as outlined in renowned manuals such as the Fencing volume of the Badminton library, Foil and Sabre by Louis Rondelle, and Alfred Hutton's treatise on Saber called Cold Steel. Through their dedication to preserving and promoting the traditions of Victorian fencing, the Victorian Fencing Society offers a unique opportunity for enthusiasts to delve into the rich history of this elegant martial art.
