The aims and goals are to promote Women's Bridge worldwide

Relations, in the Teaching and Tournament Directors' programs
and at Board Level within all the Federations affiliated to
the International organisations, exactly as the same level
as men.
Anna Maria says:
Not speaking for the
moment about Bridge, I am a member of the International
Inner Wheel Club of Pescara ( association of Rotarian Wives)
as International Service Organizer.
I am one of the two women members of the Italian
Cooking Academy ,delegation of Pescara . The aim of this association
is to study the problems of the gastronomy and of the Italian
Cuisine - promotion of their traditional values- historical
research and its publication, as an expression of custom, civilization,
culture and science.
In 1958, before my involvement in the Bridge
field, and as a result of having two small daughters, I developed
an enormous interest in the growth and in advancement of girls.
I decided at this time to create an activity specifically for
this purpose: a school of Classic Dance authorized by the Ministry
of Education, unique in the Region, with teachers qualified
by the Opera in Rome and by the Academy of State . This school
is still in existence, and is very successful.
The specific aim was to give the girls aged between 4 and
20 the opportunity to develop while undertaking a sporting
, physical activity, learning at the same time grace and mastery
of the movement and further discovering and develop their talents
in order to prepare them for admission to the Opera or Academy
of State in Rome or in the Scala in Milan - the final step
of their studies.
Member of the Executive Committee of the Music
and Theatre Academy in Pescara
I started my activities in the Bridge field in
1975 when I was elected President of the Bridge Association
in Pescara .
