Major Changes at the Shoreline Academy
Due to a variety of circumstances, I am sorry to say that October will be the last month of the
group Martial Arts and Fitness Kickboxing Classes at this location. We are truly sorry to have to make these changes,
but we hope that the Shoreline students can join us at the Wallingford academy. If you've never been to the Wallingford
academy it is just south of Greenlake and you can see a map of it at http://www.mmaa.net/id15.html. Also you can see the current class schedule at: http://www.mmaa.net/id4.html.
While we still occupy the space, we do have a few other option that might be possible as well.
These include:
1) We may possibly be renting out the gym to another martial arts school which may
offer similar programs. So this might be an option to continue your training.
2) You are welcome
to come in for the open gym format ($10 drop in or $40/month) for any students that want to just come in and do their own
workout.
So we will see you this October in classes and can check in with you more about everything then
or please feel free to call or send me an e-mail if you have any questions or concerns. We will be occupying this space
until we are able to find another lessee and the retail store will be at this location in the meanwhile.
HALLOWEEN COSTUMES are easy at Warrior-One Martial Arts Supply!
Come up to our store and get your costume to be kicking this year. There are a lot of ideas you can get from the
gear we carry, plus we are having 10% off all uniforms and weapons.
Plus remember that we have kid's
gear, so make your little one a horrifying little ninja, kickboxer, or mixed martial artists! So come visit us at the
store at 17034 Aurora Avenue North, Seattle, WA 98133 or on-line at http://www.warrior-one.com/
NEW Class Schedule for the Martial Arts Students to start on November
1st!
Starting the first week in November , the regular martial arts classes on Mondays & Wednesdays
will be shifted over to Tuesday and Thursday nights from 7:30 - 9pm. This will be one continuous class that will include
the Mixed Martial Arts format including kicking, punching, takedowns, and grappling, all combined into the 1.5 hour class.
This format will help us get all of the ranges integrated into one class and also give the student a great full body workout!
And if you really want to have an intense workout, come join us for the 6:30pm Fitness Kickboxing class. This will be
a nice warm-up before the martial arts class J
Going away party
for Jackie on October 24th at Tutta Bella
Most Fitness Kickboxing students who have trained
at the academy for a while have been in contact with Jackie and influenced by her positive strength, kindness, and energy.
We are all better people because of it. As most of you know by now, Jackie is preparing to move back to Ohio and we
will miss her dearly. She will be leading her last class on Saturday, October 24th. To celebrate her
time as a Class Leader at the academy, we will be walking to Tutta Bella for a little pizza after the class for some lunch,
reminiscence, and to say our goodbyes to a great class leader. So if you think you can make it to the lunch, please
e-mail me by October 23rd so I can make the appropriate reservations. If you won't be able to join
us then, please make one of the Saturday classes and sweat with Jackie one more time and let her know how much she is appreciated.
You can also contact her via e-mail at: jswihart@u.washington.edu
