Tim Morehouse Fencing - Midtown East Side (Manhattan)
Business Details
About
Fencing clubs in Manhattan rarely sit this close to the East River. Tim Morehouse Fencing occupies a second-floor studio at 235 E 49th St, between Second and Third Avenues, where the Midtown East side keeps its quieter rhythm. The address places it a short walk from Grand Central and the United Nations, making it convenient for families who want to combine lessons with errands or sightseeing.
Classes here are structured for children, with discounts that recognize siblings and repeat attendance. Parents can book slots knowing the pricing adjusts for younger fencers and groups. While the club specializes in youth programs, the space itself remains neutral—no glittering trophies or neon signs, just the essentials of the sport. To confirm availability or ask about gear, call (646) 624-8344 during posted hours.
Directions are straightforward: the map pinpoints the entrance on 49th Street, where the neighborhood’s mix of pre-war apartments and small businesses keeps foot traffic steady but never overwhelming. For anyone curious about the sport, the club offers a practical starting point without the hype of larger venues.
