Maestra Vaccaroni is a legendary fencing maestro and cyclist from Mestra, Italy. She began competing at the international level in the late 1970�s. A pupil of the great Maestro Livio Di Rosa, she first participated in the World Championships in 1977, at the age of 13. She won the Italian youth title the following year, and the prestigious New York Martini Trophy.

At 16 Dorina competed in the 1980 Moscow Olympics, placing 4th in individual and 5th in team. In 1981 she won the World Cup, followed a year later by her first of several European and World Championships. She continued her Olympic careers in Los Angeles (Bronze), Seoul Korea (Silver) and 1992 Barcelona (Gold). After the bronze in the World Cup team of 1993, Dorina left competition, only to return in 1998 to win the Italian title.

Dorina began to devote herself to competitive cycling in 2000, taking many marathon victories and winning a master Italian title in the world category. She continues today competing in long distance road racing, including Ultra Cycling, winning the female division of the recent Ultracycle Dolomitica in August of 2016.

MFA has a seven strip salle located on famous 4th Street in downtown San Rafael. We are surrounded by world class theaters, galleries, and restaurants. It�s a great area to spend a couple of days training with an internationally acclaimed Maestra and national and international fencers.
