Mitchell and Ez for testing Phase 1.3 this weekend. They did great and passed with flying colors.

Now they are officially part of the Phase 2 Crew.

Well earned and well deserved.

Fall is Here

With the weather looking to be very cool starting this week, we will be having all classes indoors.
So don’t forget your masks. For those that are uncomfortable with wearing masks while training,
we will continue our live-streamed Zoom Classes.
Thank you!

Friday, October 2nd

  • 5:30 pm – MKG Madison Hang Out

Over the last month or so I have be getting reports of issues with “Cookies” causing problems with registering for classes online.

Although I am not super tech-savvy, I have received some clarification on what the issue could be.

Sometime this summer there were some changes in how cookies are being handled. That changes caused some issues with cross-site and same-site cookies. I sound pretty savvy now, huh? (Thanks, Mr. Boulineau) I honestly have very little understanding of what I just said, but we have made some changes in online registration to correct it (I hope).

As always, got to www.mkgmadison.com

  • Click the “Class Schedule” tab at the top of the page or for moblie tap the “Triple Toaster” and then tap “Class Schedule”
  • Then register as you would before. 

If you were using the Zen Planner Member App to register for class there should be no changes or issues.

If you would like to use them here are the links to download them to your mobile device.

Download the IOS App Download the Android App

We apologize to anyone that was having trouble. Please let us know if you continue to have any issues and we will be happy to help.
