Valentine Pre-Holiday Event!

Looking to get physical on the very first date? Perro Shotokan Karate is hosting a pre-Valentine's Day event, and we're calling it “Spar Date”. The event is open to singles from 21 to 36 years old, and is being held two days before Valentines Day to help local romantics in their search for a new flame before February 14th.

So how does Spar Date work?  Upon arrival, everyone signs in and separate into two groups—the men and the women. There’s a brief mixer with appetizers, and then the main event begins! Sensei Chip Perro will show the groups how to perform in a non-contact, sparring match. Then Spar Daters will face each other and square off against their dates, one person at a time, for two minutes. Spar Daters can take the basic moves and add their own flair. No verbal resumes, just the moves! Following the two-minute session, spar cards are exchanged, and the results will be matched-up, and emailed to everyone on Thursday, February 13th.

There’s no need to be a Karate expert to participate, all levels of experience from no karate training, to Grand Master, are welcome! Tickets available at Eventbrite.
