Saturday 23rd of August In Marbella

Hi everyone, Danny and I started teaching this week and ended up staying until quite late, the reception area looked stunning in the evening so we decided to take some pictures. Everyone who has been this week has been totally blown away by the place and hopefully this comes over in these pictures. When we had the dojo in Preston people commented all the time on how nice the reception was and they were not expecting the place to look like it did. I have had someone say this week that the new place looks like a 5 star hotel reception and the dojo is the best equipped they have seen!! quite a complement!!
We have had a great week this week and it seems the news is travelling fast that we are opening soon. As a result we have 13 inductions booked in next week. We are going to give them the full hour instead of our usual 30 minutes. We have one party of 10 in for a private lesson and 2 parties of 4 on top of that! I am glad the majority of building work is out of the way, only the bathroom to tile but i made a start on that today while Danny has been very busy tidying up.
We are just waiting on few things to come, the front entrance is still a drop down garage door so we are ordering some UPV double doors and windows either side but here in Marbella, in fact i think the whole of Spain!! closes down in August so I will have to wait until September.
I have really been trying my Spanish out this week, I think it is a case of having too!! I really enjoy the language and I think it is very important to be able to communicate to everyone who comes through the door (when i get them!!) My leaflets have been designed and I have made a point of getting them in Spanish as well as English.
Hope you like the pictures. Carl
