Karate Biography

Sempai Sandra Tai started training with the Okaigan Dojo in the summer of 2006. She competed on the advanced competition for two years medaling in both kata and kumite. At the age of 14 she started assisting karate classes as a junior assistant instructor. In 2007 she began teaching her own beginner level students on Saturdays until the age of 19. In November 2012, she passed to first degree (Shodan) black belt after testing with the Okaigan Dojo. On a personal note, karate has had a positive influence on her life in all aspects-despite the sweat and blood- and is grateful for being part of something much bigger than herself.
