Minnesota children from birth to 5 years, if found eligible, can receive services in their home, child care setting or school. These services are free regardless of income or immigrant status.

Fencing is a vigorous sport that develops stamina, quick reactions, speed, accuracy of movement and excellent coordination. More than a game, fencing requires a mental attitude of self-discipline involving total manipulation of mind and body in perfect harmony. It utilizes natural body movement to create simple and effective self-protection techniques with the sword. All participants are encouraged to have fun no matter what their ability. Attacking, defense, timing and intense tactics are all integrated into this beginning class. If needed, we can provide fencing gear (mask, jacket, glove, and weapon).
