new york’s batsu! location is wheelchair accessible!
Unfortunately in chicago, no. BATSU! dojo takes place in Kamehachi's upstairs lounge. We regretfully do not have access to a lift. For more information or question about anything accessibility related, please do not hesitate to reach out and ask: [insert batsu dojo! focused email here]
We truly would love to find a way share the BATSU! dojo experience with everyone.
Is the BATSU! dojo wheelchair accessible?
Is there a super broad rule
that covers just about everything?
Yep, it’s the “Just Be Cool” Rule.
Any offending student who repeatedly becomes a distraction to or inappropriately touches any performer, staff, and/or other students, and/or who says or does anything deemed racist, or who is intentionally unkind to any performer, staff member, or any other guest, may be asked to leave.
We have worked very hard to provide a fun and kind environment. We will protect it and our customers' experience. Just be cool
(クールにしていてください) and everything will be wonderful.
