Women's Self Defense Class Completed
The last class in our Women's Self Defense 6 week program was competed on Sunday, March 7, 2010. The final class was followed by lunch attended by all the instructors and ten of the class participants. Thank you to all of the dedicated women that participated in the class. A special thanks to Carol, Allison and Kelsey, students in our Aikido program, that helped as assistant instructors. For information on additional women's self defense classes, please contact Jeni Morrison at the Katy YMCA at 281-392-5055 or Jenifer.Morison@ymcahouston.org.
Additional Mats Have Arrived
We are pleased to announce that our new mats have arrived! We have added more mats to accommodate our expanding program. We now have almost 1,000 sq. ft. of mat space. The additional mats will allow more students to train harder and faster as well as accommodate the more frequent use of weapons during training. Thanks to all who have helped us grow our program over the years.
