I don't know that one, but I've heard good things about NYHFA ( http://www.newyorklongsword.com/ ) if you don't mind a bit of upstate travel.

Tristan, who is the teacher named in SwordClassNY, was part of NYHFA and moved back to the city - this is just him setting up his own thing, as far as I can tell. He's the one in the middle of the lower-right picture on the front page of NYHFA. I've met him, and he strikes me as competent; probably a good teacher.

Taehan,

My name is Ryan and I live in Central NY. I know you said you were looking for something close to the city but as far as I can tell I am the only active member that lives in NY. So maybe we can arrange to meet half way or something one day? Feel free to message me or email me and we can see what we can get going. I would even just love to discuss the Art with some one in the area.

Ryan
