We are located at the south west corner of McClintock and Guadalupe in Tempe – in the same shopping center as Trader Joes and Changing Hands Bookstore. We are directly west of Trader Joe’s – just head through the breezeway next to the daycare center and we’re on the left. We admit we are a little hard to find… just think of it that we are a secret club for women to come and have fun! A hidden jewel is so much more intriguing than one in plain sight!
