New Adult Karate Class

Why should the kids have all the fun? Master Phelan is starting up a new Adult Karate Class on Monday & Wednesday evenings.

Karate is a great workout. It builds self-confidence and coordination; it increases focus and discipline; it relieves stress; and sometimes it’s just fun to hit and kick things after a long day of being a grown-up.

So come on down to Phoenix Karate on Mondays and Wednesday, 7:00-7:45 PM and learn:

  • Tae Kwon Do
  • Kung Fun,
  • Phillippino stick art
  • Self-Defense

For more information or to sign up:

Earlier Juniors Class – Mondays & Wednesday

We know your schedules can get busy. To help out, we have a new, additional time for our Juniors class:

Monday and Wednesdays at 4:05-4:50 PM

New Class for Black Belts

For black belts who want to continue training at a high level, Master Phelan is starting a new Black Belt evening class.

The class will run from 7:00-9:00 PM on weekday evenings and will be by invitation only. (But if you’re interested in finding out how to be invited, just ask Master Phelan)


New Demonstration Team Starting Up

For the most dedicated students, Master Phelan is starting a new Demonstration Team.  This team will perform at special events and will be required to commit to training every Friday night from 7:00-8:00 PM.

Team members will be selected from the higher belt students and, again, this will be by invitation only.

To find out how to earn a spot on the team, talk to Master Phelan.


Private Classes

Private classes and demonstrations are always available at Phoenix Karate or at your location.

Contact Master Phelan for details: 610.935.3545


Firebird Festival

Don’t forget: the Phoenixville Firebird Festival is on Saturday Dec 12.

Join us at the school (in the warmth) for our own party before the official firing time. Then we’ll head over the road to watch the sparks fly.

Watch this space for more details, but mark your calendars now!

Toys For Tots
We’re waiting for our Toys for Tots box to be delivered. When you see it, bring your new, unwrapped toys and the Marines will make sure the holidays are brighter for some deserving children.
