This year marks a very special milestone for Karate for Kids–South Salem. Mr. and Mrs. von Phul are proud to celebrate 25 years of teaching martial arts, building confidence, and helping families throughout our community grow stronger together.

To commemorate this incredible achievement, we are hosting our GRAND RE-OPENING Celebration on Wednesday, July 1st, from 1:00 PM to 8:00 PM, and everyone’s invited!

Over the past 25 years, we have had the privilege of teaching thousands of students. We’ve watched shy children become confident leaders, helped families train together, and celebrated countless Black Belt achievements. Through every kick, block, and challenge, our mission has remained the same: helping students become the very best versions of themselves.

Our Grand Re-Opening is more than just an event—it’s a celebration of the people who made these 25 years possible. Current students, former students, friends, family members, and community supporters are all welcome to stop by and join the fun.

Throughout the day, visitors can enjoy school tours, exciting activities, raffles, prize drawings, demonstrations, and opportunities to meet our instructors and students. Whether you’ve trained with us before or have always been curious about martial arts, this is the perfect opportunity to see what Karate for Kids–South Salem is all about.

We are incredibly grateful for the support of our students and families over the years. Your trust, dedication, and enthusiasm have helped make our school a place where character, confidence, discipline, and respect thrive.

Come celebrate with us as we honor the past, enjoy the present, and look forward to the next 25 years of empowering students and strengthening our community.

We can’t wait to see you there!
