We're Moving! |
We are delighted to announce that we have a new long-term home in Emeryville for our dojo. Thanks to our partnership with the Emery Unified School District we will be moving into a space at the Emery Secondary School, 1100 47th Street at San Pablo Avenue. We are excited about the space and the potential for expanding our programs for Emeryville residents and students.
We should be moving around the first of June. You can get all the latest details at our our website. In the interim, we have added May dates to to our class schedule at the First Congregational Church in Oakland. Please check the schedule below and go to the Classes page at our web site for complete and updated information.
