Once we get clarification, we will keep you all updated.... The plan is to run some zoom classes online for 2 weeks and return to the mats on the 30th. We will get the schedule out to everyone in the next day or 2. If we don't have your email or if you aren't receiving emails, please private message me so you can stay updated.

We ask that the parents wear a mask in this situation.) - if a student feels unwell or has any symptoms, they will not be permitted to train - all returning and new students will need to fill out a waiver/questionnaire If you are looking to get back in or are interested in checking out classes, shoot me an email at [email protected]!

Hello everyone, I know many of you are itching to get back on the mat and burn off some anxiety. It's been a long spring and summer and many of you may be wondering if and when they can get themselves or their family members back on the mat. Arashi-Do schools across the province have been open since June 15th and within our 22 schools we have had no notable incidents. This can be attributed to our cleaning and screening protocols, as well as the diligence of our staff and stu...dents. With continued vigilance, I believe we should be able to continue this into the future. We will be continuing our current schedule for the next few weeks and opening up new classes for Monday and Wednesday starting September 14th. Current Schedule Monday/Wed/Friday Noon BJJ @ 12:00 pm Tues/Thurs Mini monkeys @ 4:00-4:30 Junior BJJ @ 4:45-5:30 Jr/Adult Muay Thai @ 5:45-6:30 Teen/Adult BJJ @ 6:45-7:45 Fighter Class @ 8:00-9:00 Starting Sept 14 *returning & added classes* Monday/Wednesday 4:30-5:00 - Mini Monkeys BJJ 5:15-6:00 - Jr BJJ / Jr MMA 6:15-7:00 - Adult BJJ fundamentals 7:15-8:00 - Adult Kickboxing / Adult No-Gi practice Friday & Sunday 5:30pm - Karate We're looking forward to seeing you all again soon and regaining our martial arts journeys together. The last few months have been very tough on us all, but with some care and precautions we can overcome our anxieties and take back what we've lost and still keep ourselves safe and having fun. Those of you looking to hold a spot in the Monday/Wed Classes or the new Karate classes please message us as we do need to limit class sizes now. Let us know which classes you are interested in and we'll make sure we don't lose your spot. If you have questions regarding our safety protocols, our schedule or anything else, please don't hesitate to message us. Look forward to seeing you all soon. Kyoshi Gary

Our modified open mat class schedule for August. See you there.

Hello folks, We are going to be introducing some modified open mats to give folks a chance to get some additional rolling and drilling in. These sessions will take place on Friday nights at 7:30pm and on Sunday afternoons at 3:30pm.... How these will work is they will be assigned to a specific training cohort (ex. either the 6:45pm evening BJJ group or the noon BJJ group) and only that group will be allowed to attend that session. The schedule will alternate each week as follows: Friday July 31 @ 7:30pm - Evening BJJ crew Sunday Aug 2 @ 3:30pm - Noon BJJ crew Friday Aug 7 @ 7:30pm - Noon BJJ crew Sunday Aug 9 @ 3:30pm - Evening BJJ crew Friday Aug 14 @ 7:30pm - Evening BJJ crew Sunday Aug 16 @ 3:30pm - Noon BJJ crew Friday Aug 21 @ 7:30pm - Noon BJJ crew Sunday Aug 23 @ 3:30pm - Evening BJJ crew Friday Aug 28 @ 7:30pm - Evening BJJ crew This is what we are going to look at for the schedule for now. In the future, as restrictions get better we'll be able to look into allowing cross training, but for now we are sticking to the cohort groups as stated. Our guidelines and protocols will remain the same. Guests and visitors are not welcome to come in and train during open mats at this time. If you have any questions, please feel free to shoot me a private message!
