sensei8 Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 For grins and giggles...What is the square footage of the school(s) you train at?? **Proof is on the floor!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tallgeese Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 We're at about 800 square feet of matted training area. Another couple of hundred of changing/ restroom space. This constitutes our current facility. In a couple weeks we're hoping to kick off construction in the basement of our building to expand that. http://alphajiujitsu.com/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJhRVuwbm__LwXPvFMReMww Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the exact square footage of my very first dojo, it's a nice working space. Some that took some time to get it right. Do we face this way, or do we face that way!?!What's the square footage in the basement and what will that space be used for?Thank you, in advance!! **Proof is on the floor!!!

The down stairs is around another 2,000 square feet, but I'd need to pull the plans to get an accurate number. Just shy of half that will be showers/ locker rooms. A couple hundred will be a small waiting area. The last 1000 will be more mat space. Again, these are rough numbers. We'd like to be able to run a beginners class concurrent with an advanced class. But we're still 10-20 regular attendees off of being able to do that. It would also give us the option of renting out space for a MT class at the same time I'm running a PTK class. It's a long term plan to make as much use of our space with an many varied groups as we can. But, we are still building. http://alphajiujitsu.com/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJhRVuwbm__LwXPvFMReMww Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wastelander Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Our dojo is about 6400 square feet, total, but that includes office space, a couple massage rooms, a storage/weight room, and the front lobby area. We have two narrow rooms with hardwood floors that we run smaller classes in when the main mat area is in use. The main mat is about 1200 square feet, arranged in an L shape. I'm not sure how large the room, itself, is.
