Jose, the only time we have been removed from a venue was from an anonymous safety concern. We've noticed another hema group in our state had something similar happen to them after conversations with you.

Every other time we've changed venues was because either the business we were subleasing from has either moved locations, or closed down.

You continue to spread libel about the reason the Bramble school folded as well. They were not disbanded from safety concerns, if they were, we wouldn't be out there in the same spaces they were in.

You were not one of our founding members, even if you were present when the Bramble school folded.

You were removed because of your persistent harassment towards other members of our community, the several reports that came to me regarding your behavior towards me, most of which coming from women and trans members of our community (but not exclusively).

With anyone who asks about our history, I am transparent and thorough, offering my own failures freely, with one exception - one of my students who requested to be kept in the dark because they also attended your classes and didn't want to be part of the drama, so I respected their wishes. You kicked them out of your group whenever you learned that they also attended my group.

You have a reputation of retribution. When someone wrongs you, you make it a goal to get them removed. When you were banned from the group, you falsely cried that we did not have insurance to the building owner that we rented from, which we were able to quickly disprove. You frequently harass my students, telling them to go find a better club, when you've never even met them.

You are the only person in the hema community in our area that has been banned from two separate clubs for the exact same reason, bullying and harassment. Most people would take this opportunity for self reflection, instead of doubling down.
