New Paltz Karate Academy’s Shiai is a celebration of the karate community, and a testing for black-belt level students. Like many things, the dojo community has had to adapt to new challenges and overcome new obstacles. This Shiai was held outdoors and featured one of the largest groups of black-belt candidates ever.

The event, held on Saturday, June 5, drew over students from five locations, plus their families and friends. The event included students from New Paltz Karate and Traditional Okinawan Karate schools in Pleasant Valley, East Fishkill, Brooklyn and Kinnelon, NJ.

During the event, groups of students performed self-defense demonstrations and kata (martial arts forms consisting of striking, blocking and kicking combinations).

The final segment of the Shiai was the promotion of the students who had been tested earlier in the day. The highest promotions were those at black-belt level:

Junior black belt

Gabriella Acosta, Sean Atkins, Joanna Camacho, Jesse Dazo, Dean Krahling, Griffin Landrum, Javier Rivera, Salvatore Signorino, Victoria Urraca, Matthew Weir.

Shodan (First-degree black belt)

Nidan (Second-degree black belt)

Celina Ackerman, Brianna Acosta, Eric Manlapig, Anne Pearson, Esteban Reichberg.

Sandan (Third Degree black belt)

Cathy Ballin, Alyssa Barnes, Tyler Hoag, Eric Hsu, Madison Nuccio, Ellen O’Neill.

Yodan (Fourth-Degree black belt)

Godan (Fifth-Degree black belt)
