Follow Eagan Patch on Twitter | Like us on Facebook | Sign up for our daily newsletter The way Fusion Martial Arts owner Matt Blomquist sees it, yoga and taekwondo have quite a bit in common. Both foster discipline, confidence and inner strength, Blomquist said. Both are also a form of physical meditation, he added. Which is why Blomquist plans to partner with Twin Cities yoga instructor Brigitte Koepke and open a new yoga studio adjacent to his martial arts academy off the intersection of Diffley Road and Lexington Avenue South in Eagan. The new business, called Fusion Yoga, has a tentative opening date of Nov. 1, Koepke said. Once it opens, the 1,000-square-foot yoga studio will focus on heated classes, according to Koepke. Room …

The fast food chain plans to open 59 locations in the next five years, according to City Pages.
When Hardee's announced plans earlier this month to build as many as 59 new locations around the Twin Cities in the next five years, there was still a lot of mystery over where those restaurants would be built. That question appears to have been answered, as City Pages secured a map of planned homes for the burger joints. Local carnivores can breathe a sigh of relief; one of the sites Hardees is targeting for a new location is along Yankee Doodle Road in Eagan. Jim Sullivan, head of franchise development with CKE Restaurants, told City Pages the tentative locations—59 in total—all have high traffic counts, populations in the 40,000 range, good site visibility and drive-thru access. Michael Sawyer, CKE's market planning manager, said the …

The restaurant opening is part of a larger build out of 54 sites across Minnesota.
Over the next several years, Florida-based restaurant company Firehouse Subs plans to open 54 sandwich restaurants across Minnesota, including one in Eagan, according to company representatives.

The rollout of restaurants in Minnesota is part of a larger push by Firehouse to develop more than 2,000 restaurants across the country, Harris said.

iBeach Tan is now open at 1654 Diffley Road, Suite 108. Members can tan there 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Danielle Denny had always wanted to have her own business. She also enjoys tanning. So when she learned that an iBeach Tan franchise was available in Eagan, it seemed like a great fit. She took over. The Eagan iBeach Tan is located on Diffley Road near Interstate 35E. It opened in July, which Denny admits isn’t an ideal time to open a tanning salon. However, starting during a slower time helped her get settled and prepare for the upcoming busy season, she said. Denny, a mom who lives in St. Paul Park and attended Burnsville High School, studied environmental science at the University of Minnesota. She likes science, and that natural scientific interest led her to study the science behind tanning and tanning equipment. As a businesswoman, …

I am excited to see what it is all about. We frequent the community center/blast but I have a child at only 2 yrs old so she gets scared in the blast and has nothing to do while her brother runs around in the high tunnels. To me this sounds like it will be much more elaborate and will have things for all ages. Which to me will be worth $16. Can't wait for u to open. I wish it was tomorrow. more ›
