Monthly Pass Options – In-Person and Zoom
We are offering limited in-person classes, while continuing with most of our Zoom classes. We have been taking a conservative approach with precautions related to preventing transmission of Covid among our students and instructors particularly in light of information about new variants. CTCC has purchased four air purifiers to cover the rental space with HEPA filtration and UV treatment.
Please note that this is a temporary studio until we find a dojo space. If you are interested in the in-person classes, please read the information below carefully.
Location: Municipal Arts Center (MAC) – 1119 5 th St. SW, Charlottesville, VA 22902
Free parking is available.

In-Person Instructions
Full vaccination is required for both students and instructors
Please take a photo of your vaccination card on your cell phone and show it to the instructor. We will note that you have been vaccinated but will not keep a copy of your card.
Masks are required for all students and instructors
Although COVID vaccines are proving highly effective, they do not provide 100% protection, and we don’t know yet how effective they will be against certain emerging variants. Please keep in mind that although you yourself may benefit from a high level of protection if you are vaccinated, our community includes immunocompromised adults who remain vulnerable after vaccination, as well as children who are not yet eligible for the vaccine. As a nonprofit, CTCC's mission has always been to serve the community. That includes doing our best to protect each other and the wider Charlottesville community until we know more.
Attendance is limited to 12 students plus an instructor
Based on this limit we will be able to maintain a distance of six feet from each other.
