For WAJ families
The Windham-to-Tannersville weekly rhythm.
For WAJ families, the drive from Windham means choosing three class days matters more than trying to show up at random. When the drive makes sense, it becomes a dependable anchor for your week.
Winter route planningPlan for the drive.
Avoid making Wednesday the default during winter if Route 296 is rough. Choose three realistic regular class times. Youth students normally include Wednesday No-Gi. When weather interrupts one regular class time, request another appropriate class with space.
Is the drive too much?
A realistic three-class structure makes the drive easier to plan. Choose recurring days that fit your actual week rather than treating attendance as a test of commitment.
Buffer time for winter evenings
Give yourself buffer time on winter evenings. Use Main Street parking first, nearby side streets if needed, and arrive 5–10 minutes early. Look for Studios on Main, and head upstairs.

Windham weekly logistics
Make Route 296 part of a realistic routine.
Windham families are balancing Route 296, school, work, weather, and a full mountain calendar. The right class rhythm is the one you can reach consistently, not the one that looks best on paper.
Build a weather-aware plan
Leave buffer time for winter Route 296 conditions, use Saturday Adult No-Gi when a weekday drive is difficult, and text Sandy when weather changes the plan. A Free First Visit helps you choose recurring days that fit your actual week.
Three realistic days
Choose recurring class days you can reach after school and work, with a weather backup in mind.
Winter flexibility
When Route 296 is rough, ask about an open seat on another appropriate class day.
Saturday option
