Nashville Krav Maga is Expanding

patrickterry — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 07:15:55 +0000

Cool Springs YMCA Location is Moving July 1st.

It’s Time! After more than a year of building our Krav Maga Self Defense program in Nashville in two separate locations it is time to move into our permanent location. Effective Wednesday July 1st, 2009 we will centralize all of our Nashville area classes at FIT-Nashville located at 125 12th Avenue South.

We have enjoyed steady growth and have had great retention. Several members have also promoted to the next level. Demand for our program continues to increase and we are responding with this next step in our evolution in the Nashville area.

Our new location in the south downtown area of Nashville will offer many benefits including a centrally located facility to better serve the community. This move enables us to increase the number and types of classes we offer. Along with beginner classes offered Monday – Thursday evenings, we will offer completely separate advanced classes. Class times will be staggered allowing maximum flexibility as well.

Nashville JCC Location is Moving

patrickterry — Tue, 05 May 2009 06:26:43 +0000

Effective May 5th Krav Maga Classes at the JCC has moved to Fit-Nashville

Due to the overwhelming response and demand for our classes – We are excited to announce a location change for our Krav Maga classes in the JCC location. Effective Tuesday May 5, 2009 we will move into a new facility called Fit-Nashville in South Downtown Nashville.

Why the Change?

* Based on many requests for a more centrally located area of Nashville.

* To solve the challenge of the frequently asked question ‘must I be a member of the Jewish community to participate’.

* Provide a growth path and the ability to offer more and different classes in the near future.

* Prevent future class cancelations related to the twice per year extended Jewish holidays that cause the JCC to close for extended periods.
