We have moved!!
We are excited to announce that we have moved to a new location and a great facility!

BTSD San Diego’s first event in the new dojo was June 4th.

Shihan Phil Legare will began the Grand Opening Festivities with a Traditional Japanese Martial Arts Blessing. Performances and an open house followed with time for fellowship and lunch!

Our first training sessions in the new location was taught by Shihan Phil Legare and Shihan Joanne Legare running from 1-5pm.

Doors opened at 10am with the Traditional Japanese Blessing starting at 10:30.

A celebration dinner completed the Grand Opening Saturday evening.

Dinner was a pre-registration event catered at a beautiful private residence in downtown San Diego on the 32nd floor overlooking the San Diego Bay. What a fantastic evening!

BTSD San Diego’s last class at the Kenamar location was on May 26th closing out a chapter in our journey. Thank you to all who have adventured with us! We're looking forward this new one together!
