This is a free exhibition and will be presented by the Gladius Fencing Club of San Jose. Many of you may be familiar with the Club as they have been at the Festa in the "greens area" for several years. The event has two purposes: One, to share with you the art of fencing from the Accademia di Scherma of Napoli, and two, determine if there is interest in having an Italian fencing "Room"(Class) at the IAHF.
If the martial art of fencing interests you or you are just curious about the event, join us at the IAHF for this program. Call the IAHF at (408) 293-7122 so, we have a count.
