Directions
All on-site classes are held at 1002 East F Street, Tacoma, WA 98421.
We are in an industrial area, so look for the gray building with blue trim. We are the first door of that building. It’s purple and well labeled, so you can’t miss it!
There is ample street parking all along F Street for free. You can ignore the “no parking” signs everywhere except for in front of fire hydrants and business gates.
There is no bus route that drops off near by, but it is just a short and beautiful walk over the 11th street bridge from the nearest bus stop.
The roads can be a bit rough, so drive with caution.
During evening and weekend hours, you can park in most of the no-parking areas. Please do not park in any business driveways or blocking any loading doors, but otherwise you can park in any other graveled area.
