Special Stuff

Movie Night

You have been asking for it, so we have scheduled another AWESOME MOVIE NIGHT!  On Friday November 20th ECK will be hosting The Karate Kid Movie Night from 6:00 to 9:00 PM.  Games, prizes, snacks, The Karate Kid and a brief workout to burn off some of that energy.  Movie night is FREE, but please bring friends.  More People = More Fun

 Training DVDs

Are finally here!  Thanks to Mr. Buffa the new training DVDs are now available.  These DVDs are great not only for your current level, but serve as a great refresher.  They feature Sensei Snyder demonstrating every requirement at each belt level and nobody does it quite like Sensei!  The DVDs are $19.95 each.  Please see Gwen if you would like copies.

 Christmas Catalogs

The Century Christmas Catalogs have arrived.  Please see Gwen with your orders or to pick up a wish list.

 Gift Wrapped Karate Program

If you know someone who could benefit from martial arts training, give them a gift that could change their life.  We will gift wrap a gi and include a gift certificate for a free month of training at ECK for only $19.95.
