What’s the best way to welcome Summer? A Shotokan Beach Training Potluck! 😉🏝️🌊☀️🥋

Where: Stinson Beach
When: June 7th
Time: 9:30am

A little information:
1) your gi will likely get wet/ dirty from the water and the sand. We recommend bringing a change of clothes and that something be worn under the gi. If it gets wet it will likely be very see through.
2) bring two bags. One for the wet/dirty gi and one for the belt. Belts have been know to bleed on the gi when wet. Some like wearing their white belt to reduce the number of bags they must bring and chance of color bleeding.
3) when you pull into the Stinson beach parking lot, park in the first lot on the left. Walk straight, past the bathrooms, toward the ocean, and you should see a LOT of gi’s. The stark white against the ocean will be beautifully hard to miss.

Any additional questions, please feel free to ask and we will do our best to answer 🙂
