📢📣 Special Announcement (7/8/24) 📢📣:
It is with heavy hearts that the Neighborhood Martial Arts Project announces that we will be vacating our Mascher Street home for the past two years at the end of this month, July 2024. The past two years in this space have been incredibly transformative for all of us as martial arts, radicals, and human beings.
The support and solidarity we have received over the past few years have been incredible, inspiring, and humbling. Thank you.
While we are pursuing options for a new space, we will still be active with events and outdoor training sessions in Philly, so check for updates and information on that.
We will also be starting a new fundraising campaign to help in securing a new space, and we could use any available help with closing out the gym at the end of the month.
All that said, our mission very much continues, and even while in a transition period, NMAP isn’t going anywhere, so stay tuned. We’ll see you in the streets, in the parks, and before long, in a new space providing martial arts for the people.
