Shaolin Self Defense Centers

Hey everyone, Happy Thanksgiving! I hope all is well. I also hope you all have not given up on your goal in the martial arts. For me, I have been taking lessons myself, increased my weight training and diet. So even though our Farmingville location closed, we are all presented with challenges and opportunities. My opportunity was to get back to my training. What about you? I truly hope all of you found a new home at one of our Shaolin schools. Stay safe and stay positive! Sensei jason

Quick note to all: if you wish to continue your trading, you can do so in the Bayport dojo. Please give them a call at 631-472-6940 and let them no you are from the farmingville dojo which just closed. They have open live classes and I believe online as well.

From Sensei frank

Parents and students, This is something I have been dreading to write for weeks now, however, I fear this is the time. Due to COVID-19, I will be closing our dojo after being part of this community for 12 years. The financial stress is one I can no longer handle. In addition, with today's uncertainty of how to keep everyone safe, I do not see a way to sustain, and more importantly, gain students in order to keep our doors open. I would like to say what a pleasure ...it has been to work with each and every family that has been to our dojo, either presently in the dojo or the past. In addition, please keep in mind, as one door closes another opens. If you are a current student, you may feel that this is the door closing in your martial arts career, however, what other door has opened? Maybe you now have time to train in some other aspect that you could not have before (wrestling, MMA, boxing, etc..)? Maybe this will get you thinking and participating in other interests that you have not thought of before. I wish you all the best of luck and apologize for not being part of your growth as a martial artist beyond this point. Our last class online will be 7/22/20. Yours in the martial arts, Jason Kurdziel
