He is only 5 which…read moreis the youngest they start classes here but they effectively combine 45 minutes of fun and exercise with the basic fundamentals of fencing. All of the exercise and "games" in the class are fun for the kids while laying down the needed footwork required for fencing. Each class ends with 10-15 minutes of fencing against each other and the instructor - all in a very safe and constructive learning environment.

My last review about this awesome establishment was over 2 years ago. A quick excerpt from this 5…read morestar review from March 2, 2019- " I span over to this fantastic and energetic employee named Cory who is helping me restring 2 of my racquetball racquets as I popped the strings. He looks me in the eyes, he asks about my playing, my strokes and then goes on to suggest the perfect strings to complement my strength and style. He asks if I can wait as he starts to work on my stuff with a smile. I have never seen this nor experienced this before." Cory you are a natural and really, genuinely connect with everyone. I am humbled and absolutely just so very, very grateful for you once again taking the time and talking to me and finding out about my history, feet anatomy and specific needs as I came in on May 14th for 2 pairs of athletic shoes - one for racquetball and the other for everyday wear. Ray Ray was the " abnormal" kid born with six toes on each foot( still got them) with five toes being fused together on the left foot causing just a few issues with walking, running and balancing the first 39 months of my awesome life. This is the first time in my life that someone( ie Cory) really had the patience, the care, the ear and the know how to help me. He brought up three pairs based on my size 12 and a 1/2 extra extra wide feet and the first two were perfect- fit, feel, color, comfort, mobility - everything!!! Cory once again delivered magnificently. 3 weeks later - June 5th, 2021 - Capitol City World Outdoor Racquetball Championship, Herndon, Virginia - won the gold in the Men's 3 Wall A Division Doubles. Thank you Cory, from the bottom of my heart.

There are the same types of items in multiple locations and it would be helpful to compare if they were together, especially because some cost more than others. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Highly recommend but search for some coupons before your trip!

There are not enough good words to say about Shooting Stars. I really wish I could give more than…read morefive stars because they deserve it. My son has been playing with shooting Stars Sports for almost 4 years and every coach is kind, courteous, patient and caring for each child. As great as those qualities are, they teach kids in a way that encourages teamwork, respect and love for sports. Coach Mike, coach Chuck, Coach Sean, Coach Margaret and Coach Brenda have all been great but Coach Maddy has always been my son's favorite. She truly teaches kids the skills they should know and makes the love playing at the same time. Truly wonderful. Ask about their parties also, had my sons 7th birthday a week ago and he already asked to have the same party again, he had an absolute blast and is still talking about it.

At 2 years old she was just running around the field, by the next session she was kicking the ball into the goal, not using her hands and listening to direction.
