After the devastating loss of homes and businesses in the Palisades, our community is coming together to rebuild and recover. Our charity is raising funds to help those affected get back on their feet. Every donation counts. 💙 Link in bio to support. #palisadesrecovery #communityrebuild
44 years strong… and we’re coming home.🥋🔥
�Big news - our dojo finally found a new home! We’re moving back to Palisades just in time to celebrate 44 years of being a community small business hub and pillar.
We never left. We just kept building. 💪 542 Palisades Drive is our new dojo home. This would not be possible without the generous donation from @buildbackpali . It was founded in January 2025 by three 16-year-old lifelong friends—Mason Cohen, Dylan Fullmer, and Jake Yoon—to support local Pacific Palisades businesses and community members affected by devastating wildfires. Proud to share that @_masoncohen was a former student. Thanks guys for this tremendous support!
More announcements coming soon, including our Grand Opening party 🎉 next month. Stay tuned and keep posted. Can’t wait to plant deep roots here as well.

✨ Build Back Pali: A Night of Community & Rebuilding
In honor of the anniversary of the Palisades Fire, the community gathered for the @buildbackpali fundraising gala, hosted by childhood friends Mason Cohen, Jake Yoon and Dylan Fullmer.
Held at a beautiful oceanfront estate in Pacific Palisades, the sold-out charity casino night brought together neighbors, supporters and local leaders with one shared goal: helping the Palisades rebuild. 
Five local businesses—including @rubynails_palisades , @jaimiegellerjewelry , @palisadesgardencafe and @theyogurtshoppe —were honored with $50,000 towards rent to help them move forward after the devastating fire. 
The evening also featured incredible live performances by @anniebosko and @iam_alisanporter , making it a night filled with generosity, music and hope. 
Swipe to see highlights from this inspiring evening, and read our March issue for more ❤️
Honored to have contributed music @buildbackpali CONGRATS on raising critical funds for local small businesses rebuilding after the fires!

So grateful for everyone who came out, donated, and supported Build Back Pali. The energy in the room and the generosity we felt all night truly meant everything to us. Events like this remind us how strong and united this community is, and none of it would be possible without all of you. Thank you for showing up and standing with us - Jake, Mason, and Dylan
We were thrilled to surprise five small businesses with $50,000 checks each — $250,000 total — money that will go directly toward subsidizing rent and giving these community anchors a real chance to return and thrive - @palisadesgardencafe , Ruby’s Nails, @jaimiegellerjewelry , @theyogurtshoppe , and @gerryblanck !
Thank you Martin Short for the inspirational words and sharing why the Palisades Mom and Pop businesses are worth fighting for. Councilwoman Traci Park honored with the Public Service Excellence Award 2025, and Spencer Pratt the Community Advocate Award 2025. Annie Bosko singing Fighter and Alisan Porter rocking California as we surprised five businesses with checks so they can come back for the long haul!
Thank you to the community for your incredible support as we turn the page at the year anniversary of the fires to ‘Rebuilding Together’, an evening of hope, community, and strength. The mission is to restore the community by supporting the rebuilding of the local businesses to bring back our beloved town . Thank you to @jennifernaylor for the incredible catering and @alianaevents !
On this year anniversary of the fires, watching our community , fellow students, neighbors, friends, and family lose homes, local businesses, schools and overall stability took an unimaginable toll on all of us in the Palisades. But that shared hardship – combined with our love for Pacific Palisades– is what keeps us going so that the next generation of families and children can hopefully have the same experiences as kids growing up in this magical town. The mission of Build Back Pali is restoring our cherished community by supporting the rebuilding of local businesses for a stronger future that our town deserves. We appreciate everyone’s support to make this possible.
Thank you so much @crayoncollection for awarding us the Youth Advocacy Award! We are so grateful to receive this honor and will continue to do our part in rebuilding the community! #buildbackpali #pacificpalisades
