Hello Taiso Recreational Families,
We hope your family had a safe and happy Christmas break and are looking forward to a much better and healthier New Year!
With the current Saskatchewan Health Restrictions still in place, we are still limited to how many athletes can be in the building.  This directly affects our recreational athlete’s ability to be in the building!  We are currently looking at making changes to our current class schedules start and end times, to get all registered athletes into the building safely and following SHA requirements.  You may see your child’s class time change by 10-30 minutes.  Please be patient as we try our best to make this work!
As it stands, classes will not be able to start back until approximately the weeks of January 18 - 30, 2021. 
​We will send emails out to confirm class starts and any changes required. Please double-check your spam folders and the webpage!
Our main concern is to keep our gym a safe place for your children to come, learn and have fun!
