Kwon Wellness Martial Arts & Fitness will open a Great Neck location at 6 Grace Ave., offering classes to children and possibly expanding into other activities. The Village of Great Neck Plaza granted the martial arts center a conditional use permit at its Wednesday, Oct. 15, meeting, following a discussion with owner and head instructor Dae Keun Kwon.
The martial arts center’s Roslyn location at 20 Roosevelt Ave. has over 500 students, but Kwon plans on keeping this one a lot smaller, he said. The new center will hold just one class at a time in the beginning, despite the over 1,400-square-foot space’s capacity of over 100 people. Classes with older students will have up to 12 students, while classes with younger students will have six.
