Adria Seminar 2022

After the cancellations in the past two years due to the pandemic, the international Adria Seminar finally took place again on the beautiful Croatian island of Losinj in the last week of September / first week of October 2022. Emeskaier from green belt onwards participated in the seminar. The sporting program included three training sessions daily: In the morning, the “Concoord” training (conditioning and coordination training, led by Mr. Issa Koité), at lunchtime, a self-defense information training (led by Mr. Rudolf Jakhel) and in the afternoon, a variation combat training (led by Mr. Marcus Schiffers). Through the varied training program, the participants had the opportunity to learn and deepen their skills (technique, endurance, motor skills as well as the theoretical basics of martial arts). Last but not least, the stone breaking training was held once.

Highlights of this year’s event were the promotion ceremony with the awarding of the new as well as higher black belts and the joint celebration of the 80th birthday of Mr. Rudolf Jakhel. After the seminar, our Adria tournament took place.

Easter seminar 2022

It was a great pleasure for all participants that the Easter seminar could finally take place again this year after two cancellations due to Corona. Karateka from Germany, Italy, the Czech Republic and Austria travelled to Berlin for our international MSK training camp for advanced students from green belt upwards. As in 2019, Mr. Issa (IV. Dan) was in charge of the training and the subsequent test tournament with about 40 participants; the focus of the demanding training was on fine-tuning the technique, clinching, sweeping, falling, throwing and jumped kicks.

The highlight of the event this year was the awarding of the first master degree (I. Dan) to Monique (MSK Berlin) and Hannes (MSK Bolzano). The DAN ceremony as well as the awarding of the black belts to Monique and Hannes was conducted by Mr. Stephan (V. Dan) on behalf of Mr. Dr. Rudolf Jakhel (X. Dan). After the promotion ceremony in the seminar hall, the participants* enjoyed a few hours together to celebrate and toast the newly crowned black belts.

On the following day, the big test tournament took place, where further masters from the Berlin and Aachen clubs arrived for judging. There were exciting form competitions and sports matches to watch. At the end of the seminar there was a barbecue in the beautiful Mauerpark.

We congratulate our new masters and thank Mr. Issa, Mr. Stephan and our Berlin organisation team for making this wonderful event possible.
