Partnering with Mazda Dealerships to Bring Rotary Revival to Your Town
In an effort to keep the Rotary Engine Workshop affordable and accessible, we’re now collaborating with Mazda dealerships across the country to host mobile workshops. These partnerships help us reconnect local rotary enthusiasts with the knowledge, tools, and community needed to keep these incredible machines alive.

Mobile Workshop Service
We bring everything to you. Whether it's your garage, a local shop, or a Mazda dealership, our mobile workshop requires no external power (though access is appreciated).

When possible and requested, we will sign up local students to attend your build in an effort help offset the cost and pass savings on to you.
