Warning Looking for coaches in California

My name is Gerald Benford and I am one of the coaches at MNSP here in Minnesota. We have expanded our program to reach the shores of California. We already have accounts and we need some instructors! ( with basic knowledge of each weapon )

We are looking for someone with a wonderful personality who would like to teach an hour long class at $20 per participant ( our classes maximum capacity is 45 participants.). We provide all equipment and training ( the way we teach our programs) we just need someone with the basics of each weapon. We have in house competitions and it would be a wonderful opportunity for someone who wants to pick up some extra money for only an hours work!

if interested contact us by email: Gbenford@prodigy.net

Thank you so much for your consideration and time.

God bless

Gerald E. Benford Sr.

Checked your website and it looks like the class is in Westminster. Do you need a coach to teach one class? Or do you mean, one class, every Tuesday for a month?

I might know some people... where in CA?

Also, it seems like a rather large jump, going from Minnesota to California. If you don't mind, why make a satellite so far away?

Also, are you interested in people who already know rather well how to teach?

Just a suggestion that you may want to consider dropping "Sword Play" from any operation in California.

There is already a Sword Play in Concord (about 40 miles east of Oakland), and SwordPlay in Burbank (my own salle, in fact) has been in operation for 15 years.
