The winter blast is nearly over and now the transition phase has begun with melting ice and snow. USA Karate Academy intends to have classes tomorrow, Saturday, January 21st at 8:30 am, 9:55 am, and 11 am. In order for classes to be conducted we are heading over to the dojo today at 1:00 pm snow shovels in hand for a dojo dig out!

If you have some time today and would like to help, please come on out to the dojo to shovel the parking lot. We only have 3 shovels on hand so make sure you bring some shovels. Hope to see some of there!

More SNOW and ICE Dojo CLOSED!

Time to call like it is! The DOJO is CLOSED, THURSDAY January 19, 2012 for severe icy conditions. We are contemplating watching James Clavell’s “SHOGUN”.

Shoreline SD is Closed on Thursday what about the Dojo?

jsharrah — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 06:32:55 +0000

We are all getting pretty antsy waiting for the snow storm and winter freeze to thaw. Shoreline Schools are closed Thursday, January 19, but USA Karate Academy will wait until early afternoon to make the call about classes.

Should we be able to get out of our own drive safely, then we’ll need to be prepared for a few hours of shoveling the dojo parking lot before class can be offered. Check back for the latest early afternoon tomorrow! Stay safe and warm everyone!

Winter Storm Keeps USA Karate Academy CLOSED January 18th

jsharrah — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 23:59:34 +0000

USA Karate Academy dojo is closed today, Wednesday, January 18, 2012. While the roads may be passable for many due to your location and what kind of vehicle you drive, the dojo at USA Karate Academy is CLOSED. The best way to know for sure is to watch the school closure reports and recognize that when the Shoreline School District is closed due to weather the dojo is closed too. We expect to be open on Thursday, January 19, 2012 weather permitting. Want to find out more about the roots of our martial arts styles, read up on Kenwa Mabuni and Chuck Norris. See you in the dojo.

Today, Tuesday January 17th DOJO CLOSED due to Weather

As soon as 8 am arrived, the snow started falling in Lake Forest Park, Shoreline, and Edmonds and most likely all of the Seattle Metropolitan Area. USA Karate Academy is closed Tuesday, January 17, 2012 due to Weather Conditions. Stay safe and warm and have some snow fun!

WEATHER ALERT!
