This foundation is awesome! The work that has been done and help that has been given to our students has helped them tremendously. I’m beyond grateful for this foundation and all that they have done! Great job!
I wanted to sign my son up for a sport but was not sure which sport. A friend of mine mentioned fencing and put me in contact with Nylda. She was extremely understanding of my financial situation and instead of pressuring me to signing up and spending money on equipment for a sport my son may not like, she invited us to come watch a fencing tournament she was hosting. My son really enjoyed the tournament and we signed up that week. The foundation has been great with getting my son sized and fitted with his equipment.
Nylda is passionate about the students she works with. She provides them with the environment to not only flourish but to ENJOY themselves and fencing! She addresses a much needed gap between sports (specifically fencing) and peoples with disabilities.
Nylda does an amazing job in challenging our students by providing them with the means necessary to fence just like all other athletes. She instills a sense of discipline and holds our students accountable for their actions not only helping their skill set but their ability to be better individuals in a thriving community.
