Get onto the Parkwy East (Interstate 376) going towards Monroeville. Get off at
Exit 5 (Squirrel Hill/Homestead). Follow the signs to Squirrel Hill which will put
you into the left-hand lane and will instruct you to turn left. This will put you

of Forward and Murray (near Poli's Restaurant). Go through this intersection, stay
on Forward Ave., which bears slightly to the right. DO NOT MAKE THE SHARP RIGHT.
When at the intersection of Murray and Forward Avenues, you will see the Karate

side that faces onto Forward Avenue, across the street from the BP Gas Station.
Look for parking on the street anywhere around there.
