Hong Ik Martial Arts of New Rochelle 2025 November HIMA Champion: 21 Sec. Speed Push-Ups

Hong Ik Martial Arts of New Rochelle
HIMAC Champion: Natalie Weinberg

Natalie worked diligently for 3 weeks ultimately matching the same number of elevated pushups with the level pushups in the beginning of November. She is also a previous HIMAF Forms and Board Breaking Competition winner from two years ago.

Since the beginning of her martial arts journey, she has always focused well. More recently though, she has shown maturity in seamlessly assisting students newer to their brown belt poomse and kicking combinations. Her calm and supportive demeanor make those learning from her receptive to her guidance, despite sometimes being younger.

She is on track to be a Spring 2027 Black Belt Test Candidate. We look forward to her continued progress and improved leadership in the future.

Great job Natalie!
