GB West Ryde COVID-19 UPDATE
Our top priority is the health and safety of our team members.
If we are to flatten the curve and make sure those affected can be cared for by a functioning health system, we all need to do our part, temporarily changing our daily routines to embrace social distance.
However, we will not allow this virus to prevent us from continuing to pursue our mission of bringing Jiu-Jitsu for Everyone. We understand that, especially in times like this, you and your family need Jiu-Jitsu to stay healthy, both physically and mentally.Starting Thursday, March 19th, we will be limiting our school's activities to distance learning over the internet for two consecutive weeks. We will then evaluate on a weekly basis the possibility of resuming normal classes.
We are super excited to bring the Gracie Barra Virtual learning experience to you and your family.
We are joining forces with GB Online to provide a wide array of Jiu-Jitsu learning experiences including all existing online instructional and live streaming classes
While the Covid-19 outbreak develops, we will continue to adapt to bring Jiu-Jitsu to your daily life while keeping your health and safety our top priority. We will continue to monitor the situation, and let you know when we intend to resume regular face to face training at our school.
Lastly, we kindly ask you to not freeze or cancel your membership. Now, more than ever, we need your trust and support in our work. The livelihood of our amazing staff depends on our ability to stick together, supporting each other during these tough times.
On behalf of myself, my wife Luciana, Coach Adrian, Coach Jun, and Mark we ask for your ongoing support to help us weather this storm. Please go to online.graciebarra.com and create your GB online account. Thank you in advance for your continuous support.
See you online from Thursday!
