We’ll be in the new building starting Monday July 1st! From then on, all classes, kids and adults, will be at our new location next to Menards starting that Monday.
On Saturday, July 6th, at 11am, we’re holding a Grand Opening celebration for anyone and everyone who wants to come see the new spot! The owners and coaches will address the team, we’ll have some belt promotions (for the adult students; kids always get promoted during kids classes), we’ll take some team photos, and then we’ll open the mats up for some training for anyone who wants to roll. (It’ll be just like what we did for our first Grand Opening back in 2019!)
Your friends, family, guests, are all more than welcome to attend (training isn’t necessary of course).
We’re excited to show you everything we’ve been working on. Hope to see you there!
