The Fencing Academy of South Jersey was founded in May, 1994 by Andy Ma. Our mission is to promote the art/sport of fencing in the South Jersey area with a commitment to developing excellence in accordance with each individual s ability.
Our programs are designed for both recreational as well as competitive students. Classes are offered for children and adults, men and women, beginners to Olympic levels. Age categories include 6-8 year-olds, 9-13 year-olds, 14-18 year-olds and 18 & over. Currently, our youngest fencer is 6 years old and the oldest fencer is 84 years old. Within each age category, there are different program levels, Levels I - IV.
Among some of its achievements, FASJ has produced one World Champion, four U.S. National Champions and seven U.S. World Championship Team Members. More than thirty FASJ students have been accepted into major universities, including Ivy League. Many of our athletes have received scholarships from their universities for fencing.
