New Dojang

Here are some pictures of the new dojang. We began classes on Feb. 1 and it has been great to have the extra space, 600 sqft more than the old dojang. There are still many things to do to complete the move but the journey of a thousand miles is made one step at a time. I wanted to thank all of you who lent a helping hand with the move, especially my father and father-in-law who did a beautiful job with the new cubbies and benches.

Happy New Year / New Studio

We have some exciting news to start the new year out with! ETA will be moving to a larger space within our shopping center by the end of January. Our new home, 53 Wright Brothers Ave. #B, is located between Kitty Hawk Dental and Cafe Paradiso. As class sizes have grown at ETA over the past 6 years there are times that we need some extra elbow room. The new studio gives us 600 sq. ft. more space to stretch out in. More than likely we will be moving to the new space by the middle of January. As soon as the space is ready we will be heading over there!!!
