First off, I am forever grateful for the opportunity I’ve gotten to coach, laugh and hang out with those that I have been able to during my time here. And I cannot thank you enough!
It’s with the heaviest of hearts that I’m writing this email that I never thought I’d have to draft. Unfortunately, as amazing as Riot is, we will be closing our doors after almost 17 years in Seattle on March 17th. We know, it’s sad AF, but all good things come to an end at some point and we have been BEYOND fortunate enough to help, change and impact your lives. The economy and the fact that downtown has just not returned to pre-covid operations has been a struggle to say the least. We are so bummed, but also super pumped for the future and what it’ll bring.
On Saturday March 16th, we are going to have our last class at 9am. We are going to start tearing out the floor when class is over and we will be so eternally grateful if anyone could lend us a hand. We will have a roll off outside, tools, gloves and I’ll also get us some pizza’s, beers, champagne and hugs galore. So if you have the time and would be willing to help, that would be dope!
I CANNOT thank all of you enough for trusting me, the awesome team we have and all the things we have tried to provide you. If you have any questions, want to chat about it or anything else with the gym, don’t hesitate to reach out to me at [email protected] . And we can always chat whenever you see me.
With love,
Trent and the Riot Team.
