Early Release Day 9/22

Posted on September 14, 2014

A+ Families, the first early release day at school is Monday, Sept. 22. School will be dismissed 2 hours early, but your pick up times at MPK remain the same.

• Full-time A+ Students: All early release days are included.

• Part-time A+ Students: If Monday is your normal day to attend MPK A+, then no extra fees are applied. If Monday is NOT your normal day to attend MPK A+ but you would like to for the early release day, then you’ll need to pay $32 per person.

Any questions please contact Melinda Huber, melinda@karatedeforest.com.

Labor Day Weekend

Posted on August 30, 2014

Just a reminder that we will not have classes Labor Day Weekend — no class on Saturday or Monday. We’ll be back to the action on Tuesday, 9/2. Enjoy the weekend!

Also please note: We experienced an outage of service from Charter at the studio Saturday morning, 8/31. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused if you tried to contact us today. We are hopeful Charter will resolve the issue soon. If you need to reach us, email works in the short term (tony@karatedeforest.com). Or, you can also message us through Facebook.

Hey, something’s different here…

Posted on August 12, 2014

Yes, indeed! You’re looking at the new and improved MPK website. Our new site is now fully responsive, meaning our site will adjust to any device you view our site on — desktop computer, tablet, smart phone, etc.

All the info you’re used to on your computer is more readily accessible and now you can easily find it on whatever device is convenient for you. Wherever you are, our mobile-friendly class schedule looks great — even on smart phones — and it’s also easier to enroll or renew your plans using your tablet or phone.

There may be some things that have always been there, but you never knew it. Things like Belt Requirements and demonstration videos of your forms. Those class-related resources are now easy to find under the Classes menu.

Take a look around and let us know how you like the new version!
