Saturday class for May 14 is canceled as that is the day of the Sixth Annual Nick Smiles on the Fine Arts 5k/walk. Please come out and walk or run with us! The run starts at 9AM in West Chester. You can register before the event online and get a T-shirt, or at the event before it starts. Hope to see you there!
The PSKK held a demonstration for the Lionville YMCA at Healthy Kids Day on Saturday. We had a great turnout with many of our students coming out to show everyone what the PSKK is all about.

The fifth annual Nick Smiles 5K Run and Walk was a big success! The PSKK turned out in force to support our good friend and black belt Tom Mullin.
May 16th is the date of the Nick Smiles on The Fine Arts 5th annual 5K run and 1 mile walk, so there will not be class held Saturday – instead, please head over to the Nick Smiles website and register for the run! It starts at 9AM in West Chester, and the registration fee benefits the charity.
