UKFP Manila Shinsa 2026: Official Registration Now Open
The UKFP, together with the Training and Development Committee, is pleased to announce that registration is now open for the Examination Preparation and Shinsa (Promotional Exam), which will be held on Sunday, June 21, 2026, at the Aero Center Basketball Court, Quezon City.

We are pleased to offer grading opportunities from 6th Kyu up to 3rd Dan.

This year, we are introducing an Examination Preparation to warmly support all members. This session is designed to help examinees prepare with greater confidence for the exam proper. For those who are not taking the exam, it is a meaningful opportunity to observe how the examination is conducted and to gain valuable insights for future grading attempts.

Our planned program includes:
- Entering and exiting the shinsa-jō
- Mock tachiai in groups with general feedback from sensei
- Kata practice in groups
- Jigeiko (if time permits)

Our goal is to deepen everyone’s understanding of the examination process and to provide supportive guidance so that all members have the best opportunity to succeed.

A lunch meal will be provided, and an optional fellowship dinner will follow for those who wish to join.
