Carl Blanchard - Nidan
Carl has been studying Isshinryu Karate under Sensei Tom Lloyd since 2014. He joined the dojo with his three young sons and progressed through the ranks with them. He was later joined by his two daughters. Having a shared interest and common experience has been valuable for the Blanchard family. Carl enjoys kata, sparring, and the physical fitness demands of Sensei Lloyd’s class. He also enjoys working with new students and helping them find their own path in the art. Carl earned his second-degree black belt in 2022.
Outside of the dojo, Carl works in public education, rides his bike, fixes cars, and enjoys hiking and camping with his wife and kids.
