“When you were young, remember that role model? Be that role model.”

I’ve been fencing for three years. My elder sisters’ involvement in the sport inspired me from a very young age and since then I’ve developed a passion for fencing which I think every kid should be able to experience. Fencing not only teaches us physical strengths but also teaches us valuable life lessons through strategic thinking and techniques which also helping improve decision-making skills, consistency and confidence. Through this program, I believe we will able to make a difference in society be helping offer opportunities and information to people who don’t have access to required resources so they can begin their fencing journey.
