The renovation continues, but classes are back in session! We still need to finish up work on the new dressing rooms and such, but the extra workout space is very welcome. Some recent pictures of the school have been taken, go to our Photos area to check them out!
Notice – Delayed Reopening
Notice: Due to complications arising from the renovation work, Lee’s will not be reopening at the time previously posted (Thursday the 5th). As it looks right now, Lee’s classes will resume on Monday the 9th. Please stay tuned to either Facebook or the website for further news. For pictures of the ongoing renovation, see our Photos page.
Upcoming Expansion/Closure
For those who haven’t heard, Lee’s is expanding! The expansion will necessitate a closure of Lee’s from July 2nd to July 4th, with the expectation that we will reopen on the 5th. Our building’s landlord has graciously allowed us to rent the space next to Lee’s and take out the wall between the areas. The expansion will roughly double our workout area which will be awesome, however Lee’s will have to close for a couple days while the major work is being done. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to talk to one of the instructors.
