Kickin’ benefit

DMW Martial Arts in Snoqualmie aims to be more than your typical kick and punch school.

Staff say the school is a personal development center that cares for the community.

In the spirit of “Generosity Month” at DMW, the martial arts school engaged their students in a fund-raising Kick-a-thon during the week of Nov. 17.

Students performed approximately 274,000 kicks throughout the week and raised $4,500 to help support families in the Snoqualmie Valley for Thanksgiving dinners and holiday needs.
