Yesterday we moved to our new location and I wanted to thank the members who came out and helped us move.
Sensei Rich, sensei Sam, Chris, Hal, Aries and Pailie.
They gave up their morning and moved a lot of weights, mats, random equipment…
Thank you all.

Lilac City Fit Body Boot Camp (the people who rent us space) are relocating to just North of the North Town mall.
We are moving with them.
The actual move will be this weekend 7/1-7/2 and our first practice at the new location will be on Thursday July 7.
Our schedule will remain the same.
As a result of this, tonight, 6/30, will be the last practice at our current location.
Hope to see everyone tonight at practice and next week at the new place.
The new address is:
41 E Queen Ave, Spokane, WA

We had an outstanding showing at the Inland Empire Classic!

Four students fought hard in their first tournament – way to go Eli, Deven, Jet & Tay!!

Our competitors carried home many silver and bronze medals ~ all our students made us proud!!

Our judoka: Deven, Eli, Jet (3rd), Josh, Marigold (2nd), Pailie (3rd), Richard (2nd), Ryan (3rd), Rylee (2nd), Sam (2nd), Stefan (3rd), & Tay (2nd). Awesome!😎

More pics…

I’ll post more later (adults! Send me your pics😊)

Just a reminder that this Saturday is the tournament so instead of practice, come down and watch the competition.
In addition, Monday is the Memorial Day holiday, so there will be no practice.
If we don’t see you at the tournament, we will see you Thursday at practice.

Sensei Anna Marie has designed a new judo shirt for Spokane Judo, just in time for the tournament.
We will bring them to practice tomorrow.
The cost is $20 each.
Here is what the shirt looks like:

The best part of being a judo sensei is seeing people learn judo.
The way we mark how much people are learning is through promotions.
The best promotion for me as a sensei is when a student gets their shodan.
This isn’t the end of learning in judo but the beginning, the new rank reflects a student’s sincerity and interest and deserves to be recognized. The black belt is such a recognition.

The tournament is next Saturday.
Make sure everyone is registered by tomorrow (5/23) as we will be doing weigh-ins at practice.
The registration form is here.
The link for payment is here.
Please make sure to come to practice on 5/23 as you need to weigh-in if you are competing.
I will bring a computer to help people register if they haven’t by practice time.
See everyone tomorrow.
