Are you enjoying all the greenery and being able to get outside again? Let’s make sure our kids are building up their strength for summer, with their great karate workout! The big news this week is that the Dogwood Festival is fast approaching. As are the May Graduations. And don’t forget to sign up for Summer Camp now, to lock in the dates you really want. The Dogwood Festival is approaching (third week in May), and we need some help decorating The Phoenix Karate “Awesome” Float.
[Remember Halloween?]
The theme for the parade this year is “Under The Sea”, and we want to make a big, er, splash (sorry). If you are willing to help decorate the float, please call Master Phelan at 610.935.3545 and let him know. All are welcome. The ever-expanding graduations just keep rolling around! Friday May 7, is First Friday in Phoenixville and Graduation Night at Phoenix Karate. We have a big group graduating this month, so come one, come all…but come early!
The Chillin’ Yogi, Alycia Gargano, has introduced some new classes and class times, including new weekday and Saturday classes and a kids’ yoga class on Saturdays. Check out the newly-updated Yoga Classes page. For more information, contact Alycia at her website or by phone: 610-405-2566. Don’t Forget: Adult and kids’ daytime classes have started and are filling up. Daytime classes for preschoolers or home-schoolers are a great way to ease those evening rush hours! KINDER AFTER-SCHOOL KARATE PICK-UP We’re now offering after-kindergarten pick-up two days a week (you pick the days), picking up from all area kindergartens (or your home, if you’re a home-schooler). You pick the days that suit you. P.S. Don’t forget to visit the website to check for updates and for our calendar of class times.

This year’s theme is Under The Sea, so we’ll be decking the Phoenix Karate Awesome Float out with aquatic appliques, and parading with the town’s best. Of course, we’d love to have the kids ride and cheer in their best Undersea outfits. We’d also love to have volunteers to come down one Saturday before the big day and help us get the float ship-shape. If you can help, give us a call:

Join Us On The Phoenix Karate Float Let’ s see how many newspaper front pages we can land on this time! 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:

To help out, we have a new, additional time for our Juniors class: Monday and Wednesdays at 4:05-4:50 PM Contact Master Phelan to sign up 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)
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 and demonstrations are always available at Phoenix Karate or at your location. Contact Master Phelan for details: 610.935.3545
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! (Then go and check out these pictures from last year) |
