[Update] Classes are CANCELLED due to COVID-19
date: March 13, 2020
To ensure the safety of all participants and the community, the University of Waterloo has cancelled all club activities for the rest of the term effective immediately. This would not allow us to continue to teach classes. There will be no classes starting March 13th, 2020.
This does directly impact our gradings and they will not be held this term. We hope to re-schedule the grading for a future date when we have more clarity on the situation. Although this is a very unfortunate situation, we are focusing on the health and safety of our community at this time. If you have any personal concerns please contact our head instructor, Sensei Eugene. We will aim to keep you updated as the situation develops.
For the time being, please follow our Instagram and Facebook Group to stay connected with our amazing community so we can support each other through this difficult period.
