Wow!!!! Hello everyone!!! Is everybody ready for Thanksgiving? It seems we are still recovering from Halloween. Sheesh!! Can you believe that we have less than 40 shopping days till Christmas? 

I am throwing out another reminder to check out the SKK web site calendar function to see about class schedules and upcoming events. Plus, let me know if you have an announcement or information of your own to pass on, I will be more than happy to put it up. Contact me at rnakamoto@chw.edu or ronnak4967@gmail.com.
Okay! Okay! Two months ago I stated how small our children’s class had become, well, that is no longer the case. Tyler, Andrew, and Daeton have recently joined our kids class. Travis, Omari and Alex I would like to thank you guys for helping me in the children’s class. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Jordan is back with us after taking a personal leave of absence. Mackenzie, Jon and Skyler continue to wow us with their skills. I am very happy to see the wonderful group of kids we have now. Everyone keep up the positive attitudes.

Our adult class continues to grow. We would like to welcome Sonny, Ron and Zach to our humble school. They are very eager to learn and we are just as excited to have them. Gary, the newlywed of our group, is finally back from his honeymoon. After a year hiatus it is good to have Eugene back. Shane and Shannon have been M.I.A. (Missing in Action) lately. I believe Shane has been caught up in the strife of moving and Shannon has been very ill. We hope to see you guys soon, we miss your smiley happy faces. Keith is going strong and learning at a phenomenal rate. Greg and Jeff continue to discover new things about Kenpo. Michael is really moving along with his skills. Bryan continues to be instrumental in helping us teach the adults. Robert and Erick, hopefully we will see you two sooner than later and hope everything is going well. Sure is good to see everyone out and enthusiastic about kenpo.
