Combat the Sunday Blues | @ Token2049 Dubai
Combat those Sunday blues and take a break from the usual conference hustle from Token2049 Dubai
Join us for a mix of jiu-jitsu and Muay Thai, as we pave a way to connect with others outside of pure crypto - we all know zk and interop events aren’t as fun as they seem.
Whether you’re looking to learn something new or just blow off some steam after a busy week, come take a class, spar and meet new people in a laid-back environment. Let’s show that networking can be active, enjoyable, and can even take place on the floor.
Open to all skill levels, whether you’re 4th Dan Black Belts or never even put on a rash guard.
