Halloween training— some really cool costumes!
27/10/2020
With cooler weather settling in, tonight we moved back upstairs into our spacious (and well ventilated) dojo space. Everyone training together (physically touching) has permission from family to do so, but everyone still wears masks and we keep our pairs well spaced. We also have a few students who are successfully training without physical contact! Also special recognition to Sara Leland, Alicia Strum, Kelly Waltman McAdams/Rob McAdams, Raidah Ziadeh Hudson for your faithfulness with your kiddos on Zoom every week— we miss you guys a ton and SO respect your perseverance.
