Honored to Announce

I am truly honored to announce the promotions of Allen Monroe and Aleksi Lee. Their sustained hard work and dedication has earned them the rank of shodan. I wish I could say things are easier from now on but quite the opposite, we now expect more from them with regard to running the club and contributing to judo.
Their promotions were definitely deserved as they both exemplify what a shodan should be.

I wanted to recognize the competitors who came out on the mat last Saturday and competed.
Not everyone went home with a trophy but everyone did nice judo and reflected well on our entire club.

Joint Practice with Pacific Judo

On Wednesday 5/25 Spokane Judo is hosting a joint practice with Pacific Judo to get in some last minute preparation for the tournament on Saturday. The practice will start at 5:30 for all kids. The kids practice will last until 6:45. After that we will have the adult practice. I hope everyone can attend this is a great opportunity to work with some new people and iron out any last minute competition issues.
The practice it at our usual location, 500 S. Stone (the East Central Community Center).
I hope everyone can make it!
