Just looking for educated opinions on ideal floor size and ceiling height for 25-30 students, also based on your dimensions and number of people training where would the Shinzen go? middle of the long side or the short side. Cieling height needs to consider training with Bo. You are helping me with a pet project I am starting on......
If the project progresses there will a lot more questions after this one lol......

Height is easier to answer, IMO. The way I'd figure it, imagine a really tall person holding a bo overhead. Someone who's about 2 meters tall holding a staff that's roughly 2 meters long (add an extra meter for arm length) would put you at about 5 meters. Now that's a lot of extra room - you might be able to get away with 4 meters.
The floor size will depend on how you want your rows to be arranged. Rectangular? Or square? Regardless, you'll want a lot of space if everyone will be doing forms at the same time.

Thanks, interesting how they measure per student.....
We generally train altogether on a general night. so plenty of kids at the back (10+), each kyu taking a seperate line during the greet, warm up and katas/line work. (the first hour of a 2 hour session)
5m is a pretty high stud height, depending on the pitch of the roof, maybe the walls could be 2.8 or 3m heading to a 5m ridgeline. Bo training should be done in the middle of the floor lol....
