Martial Arts and Fitness for the People in 2023!
Donation protected
First of all, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who supported us in 2022. Here are just a few goals that we were able to accomplish because of your generosity. We:
- moved into an amazing new space.
- held classes every week after opening, even after a burst pipe damaged half of our equipment.
- provided free rapid COVID tests to any participant needing them.
- held our first seminar for women and oppressed genders only.
- expanded our core group of regular participants.
Although we have grown and had many successes since reopening, we have many ongoing expenses like rent, insurance, and cleaning supplies that will be difficult to cover without support. We also have several goals for the project moving forward. With your support, we would like to:
- Host a series of community events like free seminars and group fitness classes.
- Provide gis, gloves, pads, yoga mats, and other equipment to participants.
- Improve air filtration by building Corsi Rosenthal boxes or similar devices.
- Offer paid teaching opportunities, especially to BIPOC instructors.
