Overview
Nova Fencing Academy is a dedicated Pattaya fencing venue at 195/14-195/15 Moo 8 in Nong Prue, with published weekday and weekend opening hours rather than a generic sports-school listing.
What training is on offer
The academy says its coaching is available to children, teenagers and adults. Nova says each class follows a sequence of warm-up, footwork, blade skills, drills and controlled sparring, with equipment checks and level-based goals. The academy offers trial lessons, group classes organised by age and level, and private coaching. This is a specific fencing programme, not a martial-arts class using foam equipment as a side activity.
Nova's FAQ says most children can start at around age five depending on focus, coordination and confidence; complete beginners need no previous fencing experience. Beginners may use academy equipment during trial and beginner classes, while most session durations range from 60 to 120 minutes depending on programme and age. These are programme policies, not a promise that every age or level trains at every opening hour.
What it costs
No dated public price table was accessible in the checked operator and independent sources. Contact the academy for the trial, group and private fees before travelling. Ask whether fees are per class, term or membership, and whether competition entries or later personal-equipment purchases are additional.
Who it suits — and who it does not
Nova suits a child, family or adult looking for a specialist Olympic-sport introduction in Pattaya. It is less suitable for someone who requires an instant public rate card or a drop-in combat-fitness workout without a booking conversation.
Getting there
The operator and local report give 195/14-195/15 Moo 8, Nong Prue, Bang Lamung, Chonburi 20150. Use the exact map pin and call +66 95 812 7889 if the entrance is unclear.
Before you go
State the student's age, prior fencing experience, preferred day and whether academy equipment is needed. The academy lists 10:00-20:00 Monday to Friday and 10:00-19:00 at weekends; confirm the actual class start rather than treating those as a timetable.
What we could not verify
- No public price, trial fee or membership term was visible.
- No weapon-specific timetable, coach roster or class capacity was published.
- Equipment terms outside trial and beginner classes, competition pathways and cancellation terms require direct confirmation.
