Shorinryu Sensei Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 I'm thinking more in physical locations. For example, I taught my fist class in 1978 on a high school auditorium stage. I've also taught in: garages -- this is my present location at my home. parks -- gets kinda tough in the rain or winter! basements (sometimes cement, tile or carpet floors) church recreation hall telephone building meeting room college classroom after hours grocery store basement gymnastic school floor with springs under it my living room health club aerobics room How aobut you sensei or students? Any interesting locations you've had classes? My nightly prayer..."Please, just let me win that PowerBall Jackpot just once. I'll prove to you that it won't change me!"

delta1 Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 childrens library, after hours. top thatLibrary at the grade school up the road, after hours, of course. Then there was one 1 1/2 hr workout in the martial arts section of a large bookstore, during store hours. School room, school gymn, school cafeteria, school hallway, school grounds (several schools). Horse barns, cow barns, hay barns, barns- and their related pens, stalls, lofts, manure piles, etc. Living rooms, kitchens, patios, yards. Garages and shops. One office under construction, another needing repairs (when we got thriugh). Parks, football field, parades and demonstrations at community events. Community center, police impound shed, airport hangars, field off the flight line, warehouses, empty houses, streets and alleys. Outdoors in wooded areas, open fields, flat to hills, sand to rocks, water. Day, night, artificial light in varying intensities, including flashing. (I know, not a place, but it can vastly change the character of any place.) Variety, and fun. That's one reason I study a reality based art. Freedom isn't free!

Shorinryu Sensei Posted October 18, 2003 Author Share Posted October 18, 2003 OOPS..I think I need to clarify a bit here. I'm not looking where you just held a class, but rather where you had an actual dojo for a period of time. Talking long term here..semi-permanent place perhaps, not jsut a class or two.
