Help support our move to Salle 6!

In November 2024 Salle Auriol Seattle will be moving to a larger space 1 block north of our existing location, on the same side of the street. We are currently in Phase Two of the build out and are hoping to raise $300,000 dollars to fund Phase Three and ensure operational continuity during the transitional phase from Salle 5 to Salle 6. With your support Salle 6 will be bigger and better than ever!

Salle 6 is 27,000 square feet, has 15 permanently installed metal competition strips, 2 parafencing strips, 30 practice strips and the ability to add 5 temporary competition strips for larger events. We will be using floor reels instead of overhead reels, there are changing rooms, lockers, a cross training area and much more!
