About the Project

Kokoro’s new facility provides 21,600-square-feet of volleyball training space which can also hold games and tournaments with spectators. The offices and restroom areas consist of 5,852-square-feet and will provide office space for Kokoro employees along with space for partner businesses who provide athletic training, chiropractic services and a yoga studio. “Our new space doubles the amount of court space we have for programs and weekend tournaments throughout the year. We were able to bring all our services under one roof and accommodate six courts in the space,” said RT Luczak, one of the founders and owners of Kokoro. “The space is welcoming, bright, and designed to be ideal for us,” he added. Site preparation began in March, 2023, but the official groundbreaking and most of the work began in April, 2023. The project was completed in September and the club is now utilizing their new space.
