Farewell Tour
by Jeff Bergau |
My friends. My brothers and sisters in music. With a shredded heart and a soul full of life-changing memories, I’m announcing that we’ll be closing the club on June 30. It’s been a gut-wrenching decision after weathering through this pandemic, but alas the universe has spoken.
Chris and our entire instructor team have done an amazing job to keep the club running during this insanely challenging time in history, all while enhancing the overall experience for us. Not to mention working to grow membership to a point of financial sustainability. Unfortunately, membership hasn’t grown enough to achieve profitability. So, after nine years of connecting people with themselves and others through music, it’s time for our final coda.
Since launching the club in 2014, we’ve placed our focus almost entirely on making sure every single member has an incredible experience in every interaction with the club. With no business analog to follow, our team over the years has laid out some extreme creativity not only in music, but in business and customer service. Together, we all feel great about the experiences we helped create and live alongside you. Unfortunately, after trying many different approaches, we never were able to create enough critical mass to sustain the club without some sort of subsidy. After seeing April numbers, the swan is singing.
