Hard to put it into words. Our unit was destroyed by fire over the weekend. Hard to believe there was classes there on Saturday full of life and energy and then ruined a few hours later.
We moved into that unit in 2017 and built a community with great friends. We trained some kids the through to teenagers and adults.
It was a great meeting place for all our kids and teens on the weekend , they always hung back to have the craic after class, which was unreal to see.
Midweek the adults met up to train , laugh and break a sweat. Many great friendships were built up there through the years with some amazing people coming through the doors.
Im immensely proud of the instructor team who kept the place going in my absence, who never shied away from hard work or commitment. The voiced their ideas and the club grew with them. Super thankful to have them at the helm.
For now we have to assess the damage fully, regroup and make a plan. Finally I want to thank all our students who came back week by week to keep the club alive, and the parents of the kids and teens who always pitched in made the club what it is.
The building it's gone but the club is more than blocks and mortar.
Huge thanks to everyone who reached out. My phone has been hopping all day with support. And a massive thank you to the fire service who did everything they could to contain the fire.
