EVKM Self Defense & Fitness

Happy Thanksgiving! Stay safe and see you back for class on Monday!

We Plan To Reopen Tomorrow!

Maricopa County is expected to enter the “Moderate Phase" tomorrow which will allow indoor gyms and fitness centers to reopen if in compliance with the reopening guidelines. Arizona is now the state with the lowest estimated COVID transmission in the country and we certainly want to do our part to keep it that way.

Today, Arizona Governor Ducey issued an order closing again all indoor gyms, fitness clubs, and centers across the state. We are saddened by this announcement, especially as we were in compliance with all guidelines and city orders for a safe reopening. We look forward to resuming classes when the order ends on July 27th.

Arizona Bio-fogging Disinfection Services

Thank you to Arizona Bio-fogging Disinfection Services for a complete professional sanitation of our entire facility. The best defense is a good offense!

Thank you @evkmselfdefense for your business and for making health and sanitation a priority for your business.

Start of week 3 following our reopening. It has been great seeing everyone returning to the facility. Classes are still following reopening guidelines for gyms/fitness centers. We are practicing patience and just happy to be open again and making progress. Momentum is action. 🔥🔥🔥

Kicking off the second week of classes since reopening. Yes, we are open for classes today!

Reopening Tomorrow! We have been hard at work implementing new layouts, procedures, and systems and we are ready. Strict social distancing at all times and limited capacity through a reservation system. Things will be different for a bit, but the goals remain the same! 🔥💪

In accordance with the Arizona Governor's orders, we will be reopening in a limited capacity beginning Monday, May 18th.

The decision on when and how to reopen is not one we have taken lightly and we are not rushing back to how things were before the closures.

During this first phase after reopening, we will be offering a modified class schedule, classes with limited capacity, enhanced sanitation and cleaning procedures, and strict social distancing at all times. It’s up to all of us to follow our new rules and expectations to keep the gym open and to ease into the training to get back to where we were before.

We can do this! 💪💪💪

After taking as many precautions as possible in regards to COVID-19, we believe a point has been reached where the most prudent and responsible decision is to follow the newest CDC recommendations for all fitness centers/gyms to pause operations. We take our role in our community seriously and right now our community needs us to help limit the potential spread and flatten the curve in order to protect those most at risk.

Thank you for your patience and understanding and please stay safe and healthy!

Self Defense for Attacks Inside Your Vehicle

Following news of a local woman who was attacked from the backseat of her vehicle while driving, 3TV asked us to share some self defense tips for this dangerous scenario. Tips include increasing awareness by checking your vehicle before entering, protecting your head and neck if under attack, and if possible going on offense fighting back until you can safely exit.

Consistency matters! Here’s to the ending of another week and soon the start of a new one! 🙌🙌

New week and new month, here we go!! 💪💪

Into the home stretch for the week and still going strong! 💪💪🔥🔥
