Our Cranberry location offers classes three days a week via enrollment in the
Karate program through the Rose E. Schneider Family YMCA. The Karate program is
broken apart into monthly sessions for the YMCA's tracking purposes, however, our
classes run continuously all year round. The first class of any new session corresponds
with the first available training day of the month. For more information
on when and how to register for this program, please see our
registration information page.
