Atlanta Historical Fencing Academy has a resource group called “Arc” and we’re hosting the Southeast ARC Fencing Open!

Arc supports the under-represented genders in our club and support their journey and growth into Historical Fencers.

Under-represented genders include: Cis women, Trans women, Non-Binary people, and Trans men.

“Arc” as a name refers to a shield; that the Arc of a shield helps deflect and defend attacks away from you. That’s what this group is -- a Shield that can be used to protect and support those in it with regards to the greater HEMA community.

The Southeast Arc Fencing Open will be held on November 15 and 16, 2025 in Atlanta, Georgia at Clayton State University. This tournament is open to all Cis women, Trans women, Non-binary people, and Trans men.

Over the two day period, we will have a Longsword Tier A and B, Sword and Buckler, Sabre, Single Rapier, and Rapier and Dagger tournaments!

The ruleset will be the same as the Southeast Renaissance Fencing Open (SERFO) that AHFA hosts in June.
